Answer:

9/10

Explanation:

You would first find the GCF. 36 factors: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36. 40 factors: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 20, 40. The GCF would be 4, so divide by 4 on both sides and you would have the ratio 9 hr.: 10 hr. If using part to whole it would be 9/10.

Hope this helps

Answer:

Hello there! :) Well the fraction would be 36/40 but in simplest form it would be 9/10.

Explanation:

The way you simple it down would be by 4. 36 ÷ 4 = 9 and 40 ÷ 4 = 10. I hope this helps
