Question

Write the following comparison as a ratio reduced to lowest terms. 9 hours to 9 days

Answer 1

9 hours : 9 days = 1 : 24

Step-by-step explanation

Before we do this, we need to convert 9 days into hours.

1 day = 24 hours

9 days = 9 (24 hours) = 216 hours

So, we can now reduce the ratio

9 hours : 9 days

= 9 hours : 216 hours

Divide both of them by 9

9 hours : 216 hours

= (9 hours)/9 : (216 hours)/9

= 1 hour : 24 hours

So,

9 hours : 9 days = 1 : 24

Hope this Helps!!!
