The ratio of apples to total students is 15 to 24. What is the simplified ratio?

5:8

To simplify a ratio, divide both numbers by their greatest common divisor. For 15 to 24, both numbers share the factor 3, and no larger common factor exists. Dividing by 3 gives 15 ÷ 3 = 5 and 24 ÷ 3 = 8, so the simplest form is 5:8. The other ratios aren’t in their lowest terms or are just the unreduced form written without reduction, so they don’t represent the simplified version of the given ratio.
