Conditional Rendering based on .count - Rails

Question

I have a straightforward question, I've got an instance variable "@fam_act.count" which counts the number of activities performed by a family.

My code in the view reads

Completed <%= @bal_act.count %> Activities

Currently if a family has completed just one activity, it reads, "Completed 1 Activities". I would like to add some conditional logic so that if Activities equals 1 it will display "Activity" instead of "Activities"

Something like: If @bal_act.count == 1 render "Activity" else "Activities"

What is the correct syntax?

Thanks

You can use pluralize

Completed <%= pluralize(@bal_act.count, 'Activity', 'Activities') %>
