John has a total of 24 cookies. Sixteen of these are chocolate chip, and the rest are sugar. What is the ratio of chocolate chip to sugar?

A: 1:2

B: 2.1

C: 2.3

D: 3:2

B: 2:1

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of sugar cookies is 24 - 16 = 8

Chocolate chip: sugar

16:8

Dividing by 8

16/8: 8/8

2:1

Answer: B

Step-by-step explanation:

there are 24 cookies in total and 16 of then are chocolate chip. To find the rest of the cookies, you would subtract 16 from 24 which would give you 8.

Finally, to make a ratio, you would put the numbers in order as the problem. So, that would be 16:8 or chocolate chip to sugar. and that would reduce to 2:1.
