Question

60 inches to 2 yardsWrite a ratio for the following words phrase. Write the fraction in lowest term

Answer 1

1) To write a ratio for that, we need to convert those units into the same unit

1 inch-------------------1/36 yards

60 ---------------------- x

x= 5/3 yards

2) So the ratio for that is :

`\frac{60\text{ '}}{2\text{ yd}}=((5)/(3))/(2)=(5)/(6)`

So the ratio for that written in a fraction in its lowest term is 5/6
