One school survey showed that 3 out of 5 students own a pet. Another survey showed that 6 out of 11 students owned a pet. Are these results equivalent? Explain your reasoning.

Respuesta :

no they are not because 3/5 is not equal to 6/11. if they were equal, it would be 6/10
3/5 own a pet means that (0.6) or 60% own a pet
6/11 own a pet means that (0.545) or 54.5% own a pet

Conclusion, in the 1st class more people 60% own a pet whereas in the second class only 54.5% have a pet
