Question from Dylan, a student: The ratio of students to teachers at a school is 19:1. How many students are there in each total number of people? |
Hi Dylan,
You can arrange the students and teachers in the school into groups of 20 where each group of 20 has 19 students and 1 teacher. What is the fraction of students in the school?
