Question

Express the ratio below in its simplest form.
2.5: 3.5​

Answer 1

Ratio = 5:7

Explanation:

2.5 :3.5

To simplify a ratio, we must find a common factor that easily divides them.

Both of them have a common factor of 0.5, so we divide each of them by 5

2.5/0.5 = 5

3.5/0.5 = 7

So, the final ratio we end up with is equal to 5:7.
