Answer:
1) 8 dimes/11 dimes
2) 1ft/3ft
Explanation:
I help with a couple, then hopefully you can do the rest by yourself.
1) 24 dimes to 33 dimes
Basically, what the question is asking, is for you to turn this into a fraction and simplify it. Let's take an easier number: 1/2. What would this be if it were a ratio? 1 to 2. So using this concept, lets change 24 dimes to 33 dimes to a fraction.
You would get 24 dimes/33 dimes, which can be simplified to 8 dimes/11 dimes by pulling a factor of 3 out of both the numerator and denominator
2) 4 ft out of 12 ft
Let's use the same concept and change this into a fraction:
4ft/12ft, then we can pul a factor of 4 out from both the numerator and the denominator to get 1ft/3ft
