I was doing the hard part. Not looking to the answers till i made my calculations :-). Only fair to me at this hour (02.19am) to see how my mind is doing.
So my long calculations were simple (but long), because from the first answer it went to that ratio, hehe.
4:3 = 1.(3)
875-500 = 375
Then 500:375 = 1.(3)
But... also answer 5 is 1.(3), except the Economics must be more than Auditing.
So, answer is 1. 500
Huh... after this post will go to sleep for sure. Mind and eyes burning :_))))))

I did it. But, tell me if i'm wrong.
I will try slowly to not resteem all the games or giveaways or all posts in my blog to not make spam only with one type of content.
I will want in short time to start write more personal posts (till now have only 12-13 in 25 days) that could help me have readers and not just followers that don't read.
Hope you understand what i mean.
Thks a lot for your efforts anyway!
L.e.: what you want to say with

It's 1 500.
The ratio is 4:3 so you divide 875 by 4+3 which is equal to 125 and them multiply by 4 :)

875x4/(4+3)=500
875-500=375

Total Students 875 with a ratio of 4 (Economics) to 3 (Auditing)
Ratio Sum 4 + 3 = 7,
Total Students/Ratio Sum 875/7 = 125
Total Students in Economics 125 x 4 (Economics) = 500

875 divided by 7 parts is 125.
4 parts = 500
3 parts = 375
4(500):3(375) = 875

Correct is 1)
4:3 means 7 parts.
One part is 875:7=125
4 parts are 4*125=500

Answer is 1. 500
Because, the ratio of taking economics to auditing is 4:3 and total number of students are 875.
Ratio 4:3 means 4+3 = 7, 4 out of 7 students takes economics and 3 out of 7 takes auditing (as mentioned)
Therefore, the number of students taking economics are 4/7 × 875 = 500
Hence, answer is 1. 500
