A ratio of 1.41 : 1 indicates the relative amounts of two equal measures, where the larger one is 1.41 times the smaller one.
For example, the sizes of a metric sheet of paper (A5, A4, A3, etc) all have a 1.14 : 1 ratio or, to be more precise, a ratio of squareroot of 2 to 1 (the square root of 2 is approximately 1.414213562).
That is, the shorter side is 209.5mm, and the larger size is 209.5*1.41...~296.3mm.
Note that a ratio can apply to anything, not just lengths of edges of paper. The example only comes to mind because it is a very common example for a 1.41:1 ratio in everyday life.
(Note the US uses differently sized paper. Letter and legal are not metric paper sizes.)

It would take about 141 weeks. $10 x 141 $1,410 If you wanted to earn 1,402 dollars at least then you would have to do 141 x $10 instead of 140 x 10 because 140 x 10 only makes 1,400 dollars and 141 x 10 would make 1,410.

What is 10 percent off of 141 dollars?
There are two ways to look at this problem:Method 1:The first is to just go straight through it. We need to find what 10% of $141 is. Convert 10% to a fraction by dividing by 100:10/100 = 1/10Now multiply 1/10 by $141:(1/10) x $141 = $141/10 = $14.10Now subtract $14.10 from $141.00 to find the reduced price:$141.00 - $14.10 = $126.90Method 2:The other way to approach this is to realize that 10% off is the same thing as 90% of the price (i.e., 100% - 10% = 90%)Convert 90% to a fraction:90/100 = 9/10Multiply 9/10 by the price:(9/10) x $141 = $126.90Using either method, 10% off of $141.00 is $126.90
