The ratio of students to staff at a small high school is 24:8 if the school has 48 student, how many staff members are there

So your ratio is 24:8 and there are 48 studants. 24x2 = 48 which is the majority of studants. Therefore all you have to do is multiply 8x2 because 24 is half of 48 and 8 is half of 16. Your answer is, There are 16 staff members at the high school.

The ratio is 24:8 so if its 48 students then the ratio would be 48:16.
