There are 13 apples in a basket. 5 of these apples are green. The rest of them are red. (a) What is the ratio of all apples in the basket to red apples?

(b) What is the ratio of red apples to green apples?

A) 13:8

b) 8:5

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we will be making ratios.

Ratios are represented as a:b whereas "a" and "b" represent the different scenarios.

In this question, we need to make ratio with total apples and red apples.

We will write the ratio in respective order, or from left to right in the statement.

We know that our total amount of apples is 13, so that would go on the left side of the ratio.

We need to find the amount of red apples in the basket. We already have 5 green apples, so subtract 5 from 13.

13 - 5 = 8

We have 8 red apples, so that would go on the right side of the ratio.

Your ratio should be:

13:8

In this question, we have to make a ratio of red apples to green apples.

We know that there are 8 red apples, we also know that there's 5 green apples.

With this information, we can make our ratio:

8:5

20
