Which of the following statements explains the concept of gross enrolment ratio?

Gross enrolment ratio is the total number of enrolled students of a particular age group divided by the total population of that same age group.

Dividing total students by the entire population ignores the relevant age group and misstates the measure.

Dividing total students by children not admitted does not define this ratio.

Dividing non admitted students by all children of that age group describes an out of school measure, not the enrolment ratio.

In higher education the relevant age band is usually eighteen to twenty three years.

A higher ratio signals wider participation in that level of education.
