Answer :
12:12 would be an even ratio of 1:1 but since you have a ratio of 1:2 you would take away half of the action movies and add it to the other category so the ratio would be 6:18 (1:2 if reduced) meaning 6 action films would be shown.
Answer:
8 action films being shown
Step-by-step explanation:
Great question, it is always good to ask away and get rid of any doubts that you may be having.
Based on this question we can see that the movie theater has 1 action movie for every 2 other type of movies. We can add these two numbers together and divide by 24 to find out how many action movies are playing compared to the other types of movies.
[tex]1 + 2 = 3[/tex]
[tex]24 / 3 = 8[/tex]
8 action movies : 16 other type of movies
As we can see from the adjusted ratio above, there are 8 action films being shown
