Question

select and drag the numbers and operators to build an expression. what is the ratio of 3 to 7.97 ? build your expression here + - × ÷

Explanation:

Step1: Recall ratio definition

The ratio of \( a \) to \( b \) is \( \frac{a}{b} \).

Step2: Apply to given numbers

Here, \( a = 3 \) and \( b = 7.97 \), so the ratio is \( \frac{3}{7.97} \) (or \( 3\div7.97 \)).

Answer:

The expression for the ratio of 3 to 7.97 is \( 3\div7.97 \) (or \( \frac{3}{7.97} \)). If we calculate the numerical value, \( \frac{3}{7.97}\approx0.376 \) (but the expression is the key here for building as per the problem's drag - and - drop context, and the ratio expression is \( 3\div7.97 \)).
