Jorge counted the number of spots of each color on his dog. Which fraction in simplest form shows the spots that are black compared to all the spots Black 8 White 13 Gray 3

Respuesta :

1/3 shows the spots that are black as compared to all the spots

Step-by-step explanation:

The simple fraction will consist of number of black spots as numerator and the total number of spots on the dog in denominator.

Given

Number of black spots = b = 8

Number of white spots = w = 13

Number of Gray spots = g = 3

Total spots are:

[tex]t=b+w+g = 8+13+3 = 24[/tex]

So the fraction will be:

[tex]\frac{Number\ of\ black\ spots}{Total\ spots}\\= \frac{b}{t}\\=\frac{8}{24}\\= \frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Hence,

1/3 shows the spots that are black as compared to all the spots
