Question

of5) $18 for every 6 books. Write the ratio ofdollars to books.6) 9 minutes for every 8 miles. Write the ratio

Answer 1

Ratio of dollar to book is fraction of both

`\frac{18}{6\text{ }}\text{ = }(3)/(1)\text{ = 3 : 1 }`

Ratio of dollar to book is therefore ratio 3 to 1 ( 3 : 1 )

Then ratio of 9 minutes to 8 miles is ...

`(9)/(8)\text{ = 9 : 8 }`

The ratio of minutes to mile is 9 : 8 ( 9 is to 8 )
