Q. There are 1717 apples in a basket. 99 of these apples are green. The rest of them are red.\newline(a) What is the ratio of red apples to all apples in the basket?\newline(b) What is the ratio of green apples to red apples?
  1. Find Red Apples: Let's find out the number of red apples in the basket.\newlineWe know there are 1717 apples in total and 99 of them are green.\newlineTo find the number of red apples, we subtract the number of green apples from the total number of apples.\newlineCalculation: 1717 apples - 99 green apples = 88 red apples
  2. Calculate Red Apple Ratio: Now, let's calculate the ratio of red apples to all apples in the basket. We have 88 red apples and 1717 apples in total. The ratio is the number of red apples divided by the total number of apples. Calculation: Ratio of red apples to all apples = 8 red apples17 total apples\frac{8 \text{ red apples}}{17 \text{ total apples}}
  3. Calculate Green to Red Ratio: Next, we calculate the ratio of green apples to red apples. We have 99 green apples and 88 red apples. The ratio is the number of green apples divided by the number of red apples. Calculation: Ratio of green apples to red apples = 99 green apples / 88 red apples
