Hey there!!

To simplify ratios, in fraction, we find the LCM of the denominators and multiply all the number with the same number to receive the desired answer.

Denominators - 4 , 3 , 1 , 1

Hence, the LCM = 12

So now multiply all the numbers with 12.

12 ( -3/4 ) : 12 ( 2/3 ) : 12 ( 1 ) : 12 (1 )

-9 : 8 : 12 : 12

Hence, the required answer is -9:8:12:12

Hope my answer helps!!!

- (3)/(4) : (2)/(3) : 1: 1 \\ \\ multiply \: all \: with \: 12 \\ \\ = 12 *( - (3)/(4) ) : 12 * (2)/(3) :12 * 1: 12 * 1 \\ \\ = - 9 : 8 : 12: 12


\textbf{\blue{The simplified ratio is:}}\\ \\ \boxed{ \textbf{\red { \huge{-9:8:12:12}}} }
