1. A zoo has 17 monkeys and 12 chimpanzees.
- The ratio of monkeys to chimpanzees: 17:12
- The ratio of monkeys to total primates: 17:(17+12) = 17:29
- The ratio of chimpanzees to monkeys: 12:17
2. In Greenville, about 1 in every 8 homes has three computers.
- The ratio of homes with three computers to total homes: 1:8
- The ratio of homes without three computers to homes with three computers: 7:1
- The ratio of homes with three computers to total households: 1:(1+7) = 1:8
In each case, we are comparing the first quantity (monkeys or homes with three computers) to the second quantity (chimpanzees or total primates, and total homes or total households) using different perspectives or aspects.
