Question

A classroom with an area of 500 square feet has room for 30 students. A classroom with an area of 1,500 square feet has room for 80 students.
A. Write the relationship of students to square feet, for the smaller classroom, as a ratio and as a fraction in its simplest terms.
B. Write the relationship of students to square feet, for the larger classroom, as a ratio and as a fraction in its simplest terms.
C. The original ratios of students to square feet in the two classrooms are not equal. How many students can the larger classroom hold to make its ratio of students to square feet equal to that of the smaller classroom?

Answer 1

Is this like 3 questions we supposed to answer?

Answer 2

A: relationship of students to square feet for the smaller classroom
so just divide the students number by square feet of classroom and simplify it

\[\frac{ 30 }{ 500 } = \frac{ 3 }{ 50 }\]

so in this way solve - write - the point B too
