Answer is the ratio 11:13

==========================================================

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by writing the ratio 198:234 in that exact order

Then factor each piece

198 = 18*11

234 = 18*13

We see that 18 is the GCF of 198 and 234. Divide both parts by the GCF to end up with these results

198/18 = 11

234/18 = 13

Therefore, the ratio 198:234 fully reduces to 11:13
