Answer 1

3) Answer: 8:9 (Defense:Offense)
16 and 18 need to be simplified. They're both divisible by 2, getting 8:9, and can't be simplified any more or they won't be whole numbers.

4) Answer: 1:3 (Hit:Bat times)
5 and 15 are divisible by 3, making 1 and 3.

5) Answer: 1:65 (Hours:Miles)
3 and 195 is divisible by 3. (195 is divisible by 3 because 1+9+5=15, getting the sum of numbers will get a smaller number, and if that number, 15 in this case, is divisible by 3, then the larger number is divisible by 3. 195/3=65, so 1:65

6) Answer: 1:3 (Potatoes:Servings)
8 and 24 is divisible by 8, getting 1 and 3.
