Answer:

a) 1/3

b) 12/44

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer to a you must simplify the fraction 16/48 which would give you 1/3.

To find the answer to b you must first subtract 16 from 48 and then add 12. You should get 44 so your ratio of passengers who got on the bus at the stop compared to the new total then on the bus would be 12/44.
