Answer:

Explanation:

(1) The ratio 24.8 to 13.4 can be rewritten as 24 8/10 or 248/10 to 13 4/10, or, after simplification, 248/10 to 134/10. This version of the given ratio reduces to 248/134, or 124/67. This last version cannot be reduced further.

(2) The ratio 1.5 to 4.5 is equivalent to 3(.5) / 3(1.5), or 1/3.
