Students convert part-to-part relationships into a three-part ratio, scale populations from given beech or maple totals, and compute missing counts when the ratio changes to 3:2:5. It also requires expressing probabilities as fractions by finding likelihoods for selecting a beech, maple, holly, complements (not beech/not holly), and combined events.",{"@graph":14,"@context":72},[15,34,55],{"@type":16,"itemListElement":17},"BreadcrumbList",[18,23,27,31],{"item":19,"name":20,"@type":21,"position":22},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",1,{"item":24,"name":25,"@type":21,"position":26},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",2,{"item":28,"name":29,"@type":21,"position":30},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/exam/","Exam",3,{"item":32,"name":10,"@type":21,"position":33},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/ratio-probability-problems-2-practice-questions/637980/",4,{"url":32,"name":10,"@type":35,"image":36,"author":41,"headline":10,"publisher":44,"fileFormat":47,"inLanguage":8,"description":12,"dateModified":48,"datePublished":49,"encodingFormat":47,"isAccessibleForFree":50,"interactionStatistic":51},"DigitalDocument",{"url":37,"@type":38,"width":39,"height":40},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/ratio-probability-problems-2-practice-questions/637980.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":42,"@type":43},"mieayamfan","Person",{"url":19,"name":45,"@type":46},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-27","2026-10-22",true,{"@type":52,"interactionType":53,"userInteractionCount":26},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":54},"ViewAction",{"@type":56,"mainEntity":57},"FAQPage",[58,64,68],{"name":59,"@type":60,"acceptedAnswer":61},"How do you find the three-way ratio of beech to holly to maple?","Question",{"text":62,"@type":63},"Identify the given relationship for every beech tree, then express the counts as a ratio of beech : holly : maple (e.g., 1 : 2 : 5 for the original setup).","Answer",{"name":65,"@type":60,"acceptedAnswer":66},"If 36 beech trees are planted after the ratio changes to 3:2:5, how many maple trees are planted?",{"text":67,"@type":63},"The scale factor is 12 relative to 3 beech, so maple is 5 × 12 = 60.",{"name":69,"@type":60,"acceptedAnswer":70},"What is the probability that a randomly chosen tree would not be holly after the ratio changes?",{"text":71,"@type":63},"Not holly means holly complement.
