If a bag contains 12 apples, 4 bananas, and 8oranges, what part-to-whole rational oranges to all fruit

So there are 8 total oranges, so your ratio is ...

8:?

There is 16 other fruit (12 Apples, and 4 Banana) But we need to include the number of oranges (8) as it says "to all fruit" which should include oranges as well. So 16 + 8 = 24.

Your ratio is 8:24 or 1:3
