Copy the chart and answer the following questions:

Eye Color

Blue
6
Green

  • You do not have the write the question. You could short hand the question. For example, #1 I would write "green to total" and then write the ratio. 

  •  Be sure to simplify each ratio
  1.  What is the ratio of students with green eyes to the total number of students?
  2. What is the ratio of students with hazel eyes to all students?
  3. What is the ratio of students with brown eyes to all students
  4. What is the ratio of students with brown eyes to students with blue eyes?

  6. What is the ratio of students green eyes to students with hazel eyes?
