If there are 16 people to choose from, what is the ratio of the number of possible 7-person committees to the number of possible 8-person committees?
Sol=>the number of 7 people committees = 16C7
the number of 8 people committees = 16C8
the ratio of the number of possible 7-person committees to the number of possible 8-person committees = (16C7)/(16C8)= 8:9
Hence option D
