Solution

Number of cricket players = 30

Number of kho-kho players = 20

∴ Total number of player = Number of cricket players + Number of kho-kho players = 30 + 20 = 50

Ratio of cricket players to the total number of players = Number of cricket players:Total number of player

= 30 : 50

= `30/50`

= `(30 div 10)/(50 div 10)`  (HCF of 30 and 50 = 10)

= `3/5`

= 3:5

Thus, the ratio of cricket players to the total number of players is `3/5` or 3 : 5.
