Write the ratio as a fraction in simplest form:



24 messages : 10 messages

Answer 1

So the ratio would be 24:10, the colon can also be written as a fraction, so it can also be 24/10.
We can simply the fraction by dividing 2 to the top and bottom, which gives us 12/5, and that is the simplest form.
12/5 or 12:5
Mixed number form is 2 2/5 and decimal form is 2.4
