Answer:

Ratio of Lacrosse players to Baseball players  is 10:9 or 10/9

Step-by-step explanation:

A ratio can be seen as a relationship between two values which is based on quantitative measures.

To do this simply we divide the values of the quantities that we want to determine the ratio of which on is to the other.

It can be seen as Value of quantity A / Value of quantity B

In this case, quantity A is the Lacrosse players, and it has a value of 10

quantity B represents the Baseball players with a value of 9.

Hence the ratio is  [tex]\frac{10}{9} = 1.1111[/tex]

It can also be written as 10: 9

The decimal is a repeating decimal because the numbers after the decimal points take up a pattern that repeats themselves up to infinity.
