Study the given pie chart and answer the question that follows. The given pie chart indicates the percentage-wise breakup of students in different subjects. The total number of students in the college is 5000. What is the ratio of the students studying Zoology to the students studying Botany?
16:15
To solve the problem of finding the ratio of students studying Zoology to those studying Botany, follow these steps:
Let the number of students studying Zoology = Z and the number of students studying Botany = B.
According to the problem, we need to find the ratio Z:B, which is stated as 16:15.
This indicates that for every 16 students studying Zoology, there are 15 students studying Botany.
Hence, the ratio of students studying Zoology to those studying Botany is 16:15.
The correct answer is therefore 16:15.
