Answer:

There are 16 winning tickets and 64 losing tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Total no of tickets in a bag = 80

The ratio of winning tickets to losing tickets is 2:8.

Let there are 2x winning tickets and 8x losing tickets.

ATQ,

2x+8x=80

10x=80

x = 8

Winning tickets = 2x = 2(8) = 16

Losing tickets = 8x = 8(8) = 64

Hence, there are 16 winning tickets and 64 losing tickets.
