Answer 1

The ratios in their simplest form are:

A 25:24

B 19:24

C 23:24

D 11:16

Explanation:

The ratios are in their simplest form are the ratios that cannot be simplified further.

We will check all the ratios one by one

A 25:24

Cannot be further simplified so it is in the simplest form

B 19:24

Cannot be simplified further.

C 23:24

Cannot be simplified further

D 11:16

Cannot be simplified further

E 27:18

`27:18\\3:2`

Further simplified, so it was not in simplest form.

Hence,

The ratios in their simplest form are:

A 25:24

B 19:24

C 23:24

D 11:16
