Write a ratio (in simplest form) of the first quantity to the second quantity.
 
35 correct items to 50 items.

Select one:

a.

7:10

b.

3:14

c.

6:1

d.

3:4

To find the ratio of 35 correct items to 50 items in simplest form, follow these steps:

1. Write the ratio as a fraction:  
   \[
   \frac{35}{50}
   \]

2. Simplify the fraction by finding the greatest common divisor (GCD) of 35 and 50, which is 5. Now divide both the numerator and denominator by 5:

   \[
   \frac{35 \div 5}{50 \div 5} = \frac{7}{10}
   \]

Thus, the ratio in simplest form is **7:10**.

The correct answer is:

**a. 7:10**
