The ratio of applicants I want to know expressions about the ratio of applicants. For example, there are 250 applicants, and 100 people are allowed to enter a university. In this case, can I say as follows. The ratio of applicants at the university is 2.5. The admission rate at the university is 2.5 to 1. The admission rate at the university is 2.5 times. Are these sentences are correct? If it’s possible, please teach me how to express about it.
