B. 1 in 3 of the cyclists stated that they travelled to work by bus on rainy days.
On rainy days, the ratio of people who went by bus and by cycle is approximately_____________
It is mentioned that 1 in 3 of the cyclists stated that they travelled to work by bus on rainy days.
On rainy days, number of people who went by bus = 35 + $$\frac{1}{3}$$(72) = 59
On rainy days, number of people who went by cycle = 72 - 24 = 48
Ratio = $$\frac{59}{48}:1$$ $$\approx\ $$ 1.25:1
