on the first math test, keiko answered 19 out of 25 questions correctly. on the
second test she got 17 out of 20 correct. on which test did she get a better grade? can you compare these two ratios as they are written? explain why or why not.

Keiko got a better answer on the test on her second test, and you could compare these two ratios as they are written.

Step-by-step explanation:

First: Convert each of the scores into percentages:

How do you convert ratios to percentages? Well, first we have to convert the ratio to a decimal or a fraction. Let's convert it to a fraction. So, 19 out of 25 will become , and 17 out of 20 will become . To convert a fraction to a percentage:

19 ÷ 25 = 0.76                                        AND                                    17 ÷ 20 = 0.85

0.76 x 100 = 76                                      AND                                 0.85 x 100 = 85

76%                                                          AND                                                   85%

Now the two quantities are easier to compare. We can obviously see that 85% is bigger [and better] than 76%. So, the ratio that equals 85% - 17 out of 20 - is a better grade.

The second question was: Can you compare these two ratios as they are written? Explain why or why not.

Yes, you can compare these two ratios, just find the [positive] difference between the amount that she scored and the total number of scores that could be gained.

25 - 19 = 6

20 - 17 = 3

Since the equation with 20 and 17 in it has a smaller difference, it is most likely to have a greater value [because that means that Keiko got more right and less wrong, which means a greater mark which is also a greater quantity].
