Answer:

36/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

6ft to 14 in

To find:

the ratio as a fraction in the lowest terms

To determine the ratio, we first need to ensure both numbers have the same units

1 foot = 12 inch

6 foot = 6(12) = 72

6 ft = 72 inch

The ratio of 6 ft to 14 in corresponds to 72 in to 14 in


\begin{gathered} 72\text{ in : 14 in = }\frac{72\text{ in}}{14\text{ in}} \\ \\ =\text{ }\frac{36\text{ }}{7\text{ }} \\ \end{gathered}
