In 1995, the enrollment of two schools X and Y were 1,050 and 1,190 respectively. Find the ration of the enrollments of X and Y

To find the ratio of enrollments of schools X and Y, we need to divide the enrollment of school X by the enrollment of school Y. Ratio of enrollments of X and Y = Enrollment of X / Enrollment of Y Enrollment of X = 1,050 Enrollment of Y = 1,190 Ratio of enrollments of X and Y = 1,050 / 1,190 Simplifying this fraction by dividing both numerator and denominator by 10 gives: Ratio of enrollments of X and Y = 105 / 119 Further simplifying by dividing both numerator and denominator by 7 gives: Ratio of enrollments of X and Y = 15 / 17 Therefore, the ratio of the enrollments of X and Y is 15:17. Answer option (B) is correct.
