Question

Write each ratio as a fraction in simplest form.
11 1/3 out of 50 2/3

Answer 1

`(17)/(76)`

Explanation:

expressing the ratio in fractional form

`(11(1)/(3) )/(50(2)/(3) )` ← change mixed number to improper fractions

=
`((34)/(3) )/((152)/(3) )` ( multiply numerator and denominator by 3 )

=
`(34)/(152)` ( divide numerator and denominator by 2 )

=
`(17)/(76)` ← in simplest form
