Respuesta :
34-16 = 18
so 18 are unsharpened
ratio is 18/16 reduced to 9/8
34 total pencils......16 were sharpened...that means (34 - 16 ) = 18 pencils that were not sharpened.
so the ratio of unsharpened pencils to sharpened pencils is :
18:16 which reduces to 9:8 or 9/8 or 9 to 8 <==
so the ratio of unsharpened pencils to sharpened pencils is :
