Question

Write each ratio as a fraction in lowest terms:
Q1 - 24.8 to 13.4
Q2 - 1.5 to 4.5

Answer 1

124/67 and 1/3

Explanation:

The second ratio is 1.5/4.5, which readily reduces to 1/3.

Dividing both numerator and denominator of 24.8 / 13.4 by 2 yields the simpler 12.4 / 6.7 or 124/67. This latter result cannot be reduced.
