A survey was conducted to determine students' preferred learning style. The distribution of responses from the sample participants are summarized as follows:
Learning Styles
auditory learning style
visual learning style
17
20
kinesthetic learning style 13
Number of Students Who Prefer Each Style
Write a ratio that compares the number of students who preferred a visual learning style to the number of student-participants of the survey. Write your answer in the simplest fraction form. (1 point)
• 20
0 2/5
0 2/3
The number of students who preferred a visual learning style is 20. The total number of student-participants in the survey is calculated by adding the number of students who preferred each learning style: 17 (auditory) + 20 (visual) + 13 (kinesthetic) = 50.
Thus, the ratio of students who preferred a visual learning style to the total number of student-participants is 20:50, which simplifies to 2/5.
Therefore, the ratio in simplest fraction form is 2/5.
