Question

Enter the ratio as a fraction in lowest terms 65minutes to 20 minutes

Answer 1

First, write down the fraction:

`(65)/(20)`

Since both 65 and 20 are multiples of 5, write 65=13*5 and 20=4*5:

`(65)/(20)=(13\cdot5)/(4\cdot5)=(13)/(4)`

Since 13 and 4 don't have common factors, then the ratio 13 minutes to 4 minutes is written in its lowest terms.

Therefore, the answer is:

`(13)/(4)`
