Answer:
The critic gave a lower ratio in Fairview
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the city where the critic gave a lower ratio of negative reviews to positive reviews, start by finding the ratio in each city.
In Oxford, the critic gave 18 negative reviews and 33 positive reviews. The ratio of negative reviews to positive reviews was 18
/33
In Fairview, 5 of the reviews were negative and 11 were positive. The ratio of negative reviews to positive reviews was 5
/11
Now find the lower ratio. You can rewrite 18
/33 and 5
/11 using a common denominator that is a multiple of 33 and 11, like 33.
18
/33
5
/11
= 5/11 x 3/3 = 15
/33
You can also rewrite 18
/33 as a simplified fraction.
18
/33 = 18/33 ÷ 3/3 = 6
/11
5
/11
Both ways show that 5
/11 is less than 18
/33
So, the critic gave a lower ratio of negative reviews to positive reviews in Fairview.
