Question

Which ratio forms a proportion with 16/20

Answer 1

4/5 is equivalent to the fraction 16/20

Answer 2

4/5 forms a proportion with 16/20.

Explanation:

We are given an rational number as 16/20.

we have to find another rational number which is equivalent to it.

as both 16 and 20 are multiple of 4 we could also represent the ratio 16/20 as:

`(16)/(20)=(4 * 4)/(4*5)`

we cancel 4 on both the numerator and denominator to get
`(4)/(5)`.

Hence, the ratio
`(4)/(5)` is proportion with
`(16)/(20)`.
