Step-by-step explanation:

There are 950 students at Hanover High School. The ratio of the number of freshmen to all students is 3:10. This means that the number of freshmen is 3/10 * total number of students.

Number of freshmen = 3/10*950 = 285 freshmen

The ratio of the number of sophomore to all students is 1:2. This means that the number of sophomore is 1/2 * total number of students.

Number of sophomore = 1/2*950 = 475 sophomore

The ratio of the number of freshmen to sophomore is the number of freshmen / the number of

sophomore.

It becomes 285/475 = 57/95
