Answer: B 1:500

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The number of sheets of paper = 8000

The number of reams = 16

Then , the ratio of sheets to reams is given by :-

[tex]\dfrac{\text{Number of reams}}{\text{Number of sheets}}=\dfrac{16}{8000}[/tex]

Dividing both numerator and denominator by 16, we get

[tex]\dfrac{1}{500}[/tex]

Hence, the ratio of sheets to reams in simplest from = 1:500
