The student to staff ratio at a small college is 17:3. The total number of students and staff is 740. How many students are there at the college? How many staff members are there?

Respuesta :

Answer:

There are 629 students at the college

There are 91 staff members at the college

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, you would need to find the ratio, which is already given in this problem. Divide 740 by 20 and the answer is 37. Now that you have 37, multiply it by 17 to get the total number of students in the college.

37*17=629 students. Then subtract 740-629=91

So there are 629 students

And 91 staff members.
