c the ratio of shots made to shots taken if 7 out of 12 shots taken are made

E the ratio of small dogs to big dogs if there are 7 small dogs and 12 big dogs

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio of a to b:

The ratio of a to b is given by a divided by b.

A the ratio of shells to rocks if there are 7 rocks and 12 shells

12 shells and 7 rocks, so this ratio is 12 to 7.

B the ratio of shoes to dresses if there are 7 dresses and 12 shoes

12 shoes and 7 dresses, so this ratio is 12 to 7.

c the ratio of shots made to shots taken if 7 out of 12 shots taken are made

7 shots made out of 12 taken, so this ratio is 7 to 12, and c is one of the correct options.

D the ratio of sick patients to total patients if there are 7 sick patients and 12 healthy patients

7 sick patients

7 + 12 = 19 total patients

So this ratio is 7 to 19

E the ratio of small dogs to big dogs if there are 7 small dogs and 12 big dogs

7 small dogs and 12 big dogs, so this ratio is 7 to 12, and e is the other correct option.

8121 because

130,000 divided by 16 is 8121
