The formula to calculate the Teacher-Student Ratio is:
\[ \text{Ratio} = \frac{\text{Number of Students}}{\text{Number of Teachers}} \]
Where:
The teacher-student ratio is a measure of the number of students for every teacher in a classroom or educational institution. This ratio is used to assess the level of individual attention a student may receive and is a key indicator of the quality of education. Lower ratios are generally preferred as they suggest more personalized instruction and support for each student.
Let's assume the following values:
Step 1: Divide the number of students by the number of teachers:
\[ \text{Ratio} = \frac{150}{5} = 30 \]
The Teacher-Student Ratio is 1:30.
