Answer:
There are 46 more skiers than snowboarder
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Ratio of Snowboarders to Skiers
On Friday:
[tex]Ratio = 8 : 3[/tex]
On Saturday:
[tex]Ratio = 4 : 7[/tex]
Population = 168
Required
Determine the difference in the number of skiers and snowboarders on Saturday
On Saturday, we have
[tex]Ratio = 4 : 7[/tex]
Calculate Total
[tex]Total = 4 + 7[/tex]
[tex]Total = 11[/tex]
Calculate the number of skiers
[tex]Skiers = \frac{7}{11} * 168[/tex]
[tex]Skiers = \frac{1176}{11}[/tex]
[tex]Skiers = 107[/tex] (Approximated)
Calculate the number of snowboarders
[tex]Snowboarders = \frac{4}{11} * 168[/tex]
[tex]Snowboarders = \frac{672}{11}[/tex]
[tex]Snowboarders = 61[/tex] (Approximated)
Calculate the difference
[tex]Difference = 107 - 61[/tex]
[tex]Difference = 46[/tex]
Hence, there are 46 more skiers than snowboarder
