On last week's math test, 32 students received passing grades and 16 students did not receive passing grades. What is the ratio of the number of students who passed the test to
the total number of students who took the test?
A
11 / 1
B
2/3
C
3/2
D
2/1

Option B.             The ratio of the number of students who passed the test to

the total number of students who took the test is 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we have to find the total number of students who took the test, we can do that by adding the number of students who passed and the number of students who did not pass, so ...

32 + 16 = 48

Now we just write down the ratio between the number of students who passed the test and  the total number of students who took the test. So we get

32/48

Now we just simplify and get...

2/3

this is not the answer this is just a question. is this middle school math?
