Problem Analysis:
The worksheet involves solving ratio problems based on the images provided. Let's break it down step by step.
---
Section 1: Butterflies and Houseflies
#### Image Description:
- There are
4 butterflies.
- There are
5 houseflies.
#### Questions:
#####
a) What is the ratio of butterflies to houseflies?
- The ratio of butterflies to houseflies is calculated as:
$$
\text{Ratio} = \frac{\text{Number of butterflies}}{\text{Number of houseflies}} = \frac{4}{5}
$$
- Therefore, the ratio is
4:5.
#####
b) The ratio of insects to butterflies is:
- Insects include both butterflies and houseflies. So, the total number of insects is:
$$
\text{Total insects} = \text{Butterflies} + \text{Houseflies} = 4 + 5 = 9
$$
- The ratio of insects to butterflies is:
$$
\text{Ratio} = \frac{\text{Total insects}}{\text{Butterflies}} = \frac{9}{4}
$$
- Therefore, the ratio is
9:4.
#####
c) Write the ratio of houseflies to insects:
- The total number of insects is 9 (as calculated above).
- The ratio of houseflies to insects is:
$$
\text{Ratio} = \frac{\text{Houseflies}}{\text{Total insects}} = \frac{5}{9}
$$
- Therefore, the ratio is
5:9.
#####
d) The ratio of houseflies to butterflies is:
- The ratio of houseflies to butterflies is:
$$
\text{Ratio} = \frac{\text{Houseflies}}{\text{Butterflies}} = \frac{5}{4}
$$
- Therefore, the ratio is
5:4.

Section 2: Circles and Triangles
#### Image Description:
- There are
7 circles.
- There are
6 triangles.
- Total shapes = Circles + Triangles = 7 + 6 = 13.
#### Questions:
#####
a) The ratio of circles to triangles is:
- The ratio of circles to triangles is:
$$
\text{Ratio} = \frac{\text{Circles}}{\text{Triangles}} = \frac{7}{6}
$$
- Therefore, the ratio is
7:6.
#####
b) Write the ratio of triangles to circles:
- The ratio of triangles to circles is:
$$
\text{Ratio} = \frac{\text{Triangles}}{\text{Circles}} = \frac{6}{7}
$$
- Therefore, the ratio is
6:7.
#####
c) The ratio of circles to shapes is:
- The total number of shapes is 13.
- The ratio of circles to shapes is:
$$
\text{Ratio} = \frac{\text{Circles}}{\text{Total shapes}} = \frac{7}{13}
$$
- Therefore, the ratio is
7:13.
#####
d) What is the ratio of shapes to triangles?
- The total number of shapes is 13.
- The ratio of shapes to triangles is:
$$
\text{Ratio} = \frac{\text{Total shapes}}{\text{Triangles}} = \frac{13}{6}
$$
- Therefore, the ratio is
13:6.
