john is a proud owner of a herd of cows 12 of them are brown and 32 are black what is the ratio of brown cows to the total number of cows?

12:44, or if simplified 3:11

Step-by-step explanation:

In mathematics, a ratio indicates how many times one number contains another. For example, if there are eight oranges and six lemons in a bowl of fruit, then the ratio of oranges to lemons is eight to six (that is, 8∶6, which is equivalent to the ratio 4∶3). Similarly, the ratio of lemons to oranges is 6∶8 (or 3∶4) and the ratio of oranges to the total amount of fruit is 8∶14 (or 4∶7).

3 : 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of cows = 32 + 12 = 44

Brown cows : Total

12 : 44 =

3 : 11

the correct answer is c
