Question

Tamar travels 8/9 miles to the grocery store. Melkon travels 10 miles to the grocery store. Write the ratio of the distance Melkon travels to the distance Tamar travels as a fraction in simplest form. Write the ratio of the distance Tamar travels to the distance Melkon travels as a fraction in simplest form. PLZ I NEED URGENT HELP I NEED THE ANSWER

Answer 1

`\frac{\text{Distance of melkon}}{\text{Distance of tamar}} = (45)/(4)\\\\\frac{\text{Distance of tamar}}{\text{Distance of melkon}} = (4)/(45)`

Solution:

Given that,

Tamar travels 8/9 miles to the grocery store

Melkon travels 10 miles to the grocery store

Therefore,

`Tamar = (8)/(9)\ miles\\\\Melkon = 10\ miles`

Write the ratio of the distance Melkon travels to the distance Tamar travels

`\text{ Distance of melkon : Distance of tamar } = 10 : (8)/(9)\\\\\text{ Distance of melkon : Distance of tamar } = (10 * 9)/(1 * 9) : (8)/(9)\\\\\text{ Distance of melkon : Distance of tamar } = (90)/(9) : (8)/(9)\\\\\text{ Distance of melkon : Distance of tamar } =90 : 8\\\\In\ fraction\ form\\\\\frac{\text{Distance of melkon}}{\text{Distance of tamar}} = (90)/(8)\\\\In\ simplest\ form\\\\\frac{\text{Distance of melkon}}{\text{Distance of tamar}} = (45)/(4)`

Write the ratio of the distance Tamar travels to the distance Melkon travels

`\text{ Distance of tamar : Distance of melkon } = (8)/(9) : 10\\\\\text{ Distance of tamar : Distance of melkon } = (8)/(9) : (10 * 9)/(1 * 9)\\\\\text{ Distance of tamar : Distance of melkon } = (8)/(9) : (90)/(9)\\\\\text{ Distance of tamar : Distance of melkon } = 8 : 90\\\\In\ fraction\ form\\\\\frac{\text{Distance of tamar}}{\text{distance of melkon}} = (8)/(90)\\\\\frac{\text{Distance of tamar}}{\text{distance of melkon}} = (4)/(45)`

Thus the required are found
