Step-by-step explanation:

180 : 4

45 : 1

Answer 2

The ratio of 15 years to 4 months is 45:1.

Step-by-step explanation:

To compare the two durations, we need them in the same units. Since there are 12 months in one year, 15 years equals 15 * 12 = 180 months.

Now we can compare this to 4 months.

The ratio of 180 months (which is 15 years) to 4 months is 180:4. This simplifies to 45:1 (divide both by 4).

So, the ratio of 15 years to 4 months in simplest form is 45:1. Therefore, none of the given options (1:3, 4:1, 3:1, 2:3) are correct.
