In an examination 112 students appeared. Out of them 14 failed. The ratio between passed and failed students is _____?

Explanation

To find the ratio of passed to failed students:

Number of students who passed = Total students - Failed students

= 112 - 14

= 98

Ratio of passed to failed students = 98 : 14

Simplify the ratio by dividing both numbers by 14:

Ratio = 98/14 : 14/14

= 7 : 1
