What is the ratio of actual mass of water vapor in a given volume of moist air to the mass of water vapor in the same volume of saturated air at the same pressure and temperature?

What is the ratio of actual mass of water vapor in a given volume of moist air to the mass of water vapor in the same volume of saturated air at the same pressure and temperature? Correct Answer Relative humidity

Relative humidity is the ratio of actual mass of water vapor in a given volume of moist air to the mass of water vapor in the same volume of saturated air. It can be represented as, ∅ = mv / ms = pv / ps.
