Question 1096229: in a wedding 3/7 of the people are sitting in the hall and the rest in the lawn . if 1/5 of the people sitting in the lawn move to the hall , what is the ratio of the people sitting in the lawn to the people sitting in the hall . Answer by jorel1380(3719) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 3/7 of the people are in the hall; leaving 4/7 on the lawn. 1/5 x 4/7=4/35 now sitting in the hall. So, the ratio of lawn to hall would be:
4/7-4/35:3/7+4/35, or
20-4/35:15+4/35 or
16:19
