Which is it
I apologize for the confusion. The correct answer is "46 to 53".
To find the whole-to-part ratio for phones and televisions, we need to add the number of phones and televisions together, and then write the ratio in the form of "whole to part."
The total number of phones is 23, and the total number of televisions is 17.
Therefore, the whole-to-part ratio for phones and televisions would be 40 to 17.
To find the whole-to-part ratio for phones and televisions, we need to add the number of phones and televisions together to get the whole, and then write it as a ratio with the number of televisions as the part.
Adding the number of phones (23) and televisions (17) together gives us a total of 40 devices.
So, the whole-to-part ratio for phones and televisions is 40 to 17 or simply 40:17.
