Question

Write the ratio as a fraction in simple form, with whole number in the numerator and denominator 2. 7 hr to 7. 2 hr

Answer 1

3/8

Explanation:

A ratio is expressed in lowest terms by removing common factors from numerator and denominator.

`\frac{2.7\text{ hr}}{7.2\text{ hr}}=\frac{3\cdot0.9\text{ hr}}{8\cdot0.9\text{ hr}}=\boxed{(3)/(8)}`
