5.6/10 = 14/25
To find the ratio of a fraction, you first need to simplify the fraction. In this case, both numbers can divide by 14, and so we can simplify it to 3/5. To turn this simplified fraction into a ratio, the first number is the numerator, and the second number is the denominator minus the numerator. Thus, the ratio of 42/70 would be 3:2
the ratio of a number to another is the quotient when the first number is divided by the second number (not zero) hope this helps, i found the answer on my books glossary good luck!!
simplify the ratio 18b^2 to 45b
You can write this as 51:36.Note: You can simplify ratios the same way you simplify fractions; that is, if you find a number that is a factor of BOTH numbers, you can divide both numbers by that factor, to get an equivalent ratio.
1.25 IS a rational number. The fact that it is expressed as a decimal does not mean it is not rational. As a ratio, it can be written as 125/100. You may simplify that ratio if you so wish

You divide the first something by the second something. You can, if you like, simplify the resulting fraction.
The answer is the antecedent and the second number is the consequent.
You should always check 2 things first. Make sure that the first number in the ratio is the numerator, and the second is the denominator. A 5:8 ratio should never end up being 8/5. Also, it's very helpful to simplify, if not already done in the ratio. Same applies to writing a fraction as a ratio.
The number, in the form of a ratio, is 2718/1000. You can simplify that if you wish.

4.8 is the ratio 48/10 . You can never write 4.8 as a singlewhole number, simply because 4.8 is not a whole number.
First step: Write it as a fraction, "23 minutes / 5 hours". Second step: Convert everything to the same units. Converting to minutes is simpler in this case. Third step: Simplify. (In this case, there is nothing to simplify. 23 is a prime number, and the number of minutes you'll get is not a multiple of 23.)

Usually you would put the first number in the ratio into the fraction's numerator (top part), and the second number into the fraction's denominator (bottom part).
