Respuesta :

The ratio of nonwinners in group A to nonwinners in group B after the selections are made is 156 : 319.

What is the ratio?

Ratio expresses the relationship between two or more numbers. It shows the frequency of the number of times that one value is contained within other value(s).

Nonwinners in group A = (1 - 3/5) x 390 = 156

Winners in group B = (390 - 156) = 234

nonwinners in group B = 553 - 234 = 319

The ratio = 156 : 319
