Ms powell's class voted on where you go for a field trip. the museum received 11 votes and 16 students voted to go to the aquarium. use numbers and words to write the ratio of votes for the aquarium to votes for the museum. explain

The ratio of students who voted museum to students who voted aquarium is eleven to sixteen
11:16

In the sentence I said the museum sudnets before the aquarium students. When you write it down or say it you the numbers have to match the order of what you're comparing too. That's why eleven goes first in this case
