Total food items = 6 + 4 + 7 + 4 = 21

Ratio of can of fruit to total food items = 6 / 21

It means, In every that(21) amount of food items, there is 6 can of fruit.

Answer with explanation:

It is given that:

Mrs. Teasley classes brought in 6 can of fruit 4 can of bean 7 box of noddle and 4 can of soup.

This means that the total number of food items collected is:

              6+4+7+4=21 cans.

Now, the ratio of  can of fruit to the total number of food items is:

[tex]=\dfrac{\text{Ratio\ of\ can\ of\ fruit}}{\text{Total number of cans}}\\\\\\=\dfrac{6}{21}\\\\\\\text{which in simplest fraction is given by}=\dfrac{2}{7}[/tex]

  • Hence, the ratio is:   [tex]\dfrac{2}{7}[/tex]
  • This means that for every 7 cans of fruit items there are 2 cans of fruit.
