Question

Write the ratio of the first measurement to the second measurement. Compare in inches. 4 feet to 26 inches

Answer 1

`(4feet)/(26 inches) =(24)/(13)`

Explanation:

We need to compare two measurements

So, firstly we will change each measurements into same unit form

we can see that we have feet and inches

so, firstly we will change all measurements into inches

we know that

1 feet =12inches

so,

4 feet = 12*4 inches

4 feet = 48 inches

First measurement is 48 inches

Second measurement is 26 inches

now, we can find ratio

`(4feet)/(26 inches) =(48)/(26)`

we can simplify it

`(4feet)/(26 inches) =(24)/(13)`
