Last season, zoe's soccer team won 8 games and lost 14 games. her cousin carly's team won 7 games and lost 17 games. which team had a lower ratio of wins to losses?

Carly

Step-by-step explanation:

to figure out what the ratio is you need to put it in fraction form

zoe's team is 8/14

carly's team is 7/17

you need to find a common denominator to figure out who has the higher number of wins

in this case, the common denominator would be 238 or 14 times 17

you multiply both the numerator and the denominator by 17/17 for zoe's fractions

zoe's team has 136/238

carly's team would be multiplied by 14/14

this would give you 98/238

now that both fractions have the same denominator you can determine that carly's team lost more games
