If you start with a ratio in the form p/q and want a ratio with a denominator of 1, simply divided p by q. So suppose you are given the ratio 35/10 (so that p = 35, q = 10). Then divide 35 by 10 which gives 3.5. So the units ratio is 3.5:1 or (7/2):1
1/2
divide both numbers by a common denominator, e.g. 2, such that the ratio becomes 3:5.
A ratio of 6:2 could be simplified to 3:1.
1 to 2
1:2 (divide both by 1500)
Divide one of them by the other one. The ratio of 2 to 6 is 2/6 = 1/3 . The ratio of 6 to 2 is 6/2 = 3 .
If you are dividing something into the ratio of 1:2, you would be dividing it into three parts. In this instance, your end ratio would be 20:40 pounds.
One pile has 2 parts of the total and the other has 1 part → 2 + 1 = 3 parts are needed to divide up the total. 12 / 3 = 4 → each part contains 4 → to divide 12 in the ratio of 2:1, you split it 2 parts × 4 per part : 1 part × 4 per part = 8 : 4
A colon is used in a ratio (Google it)
The answer is 1/2, or one half. A ratio of x to yis always x/y. More correctly, it is 1/3 of one item and 2/3 of another.If you divide $1200 between two people in the ratio 1:2 the first gets 1/3 of $1200, which is $400, and the other gets 2/3 of $1200, which is $800.If you mix your orange squash with water in a ratio of 1:2, then for each cup of squash you add 2 cups of water to get 3 cups of your drink altogether.
1) Calculate the area 2) Calculate the volume 3) Divide the area by the volume to get the ratio
divide both sides by a common factor, in this case 2. 6(/2):2(/2) 3:1

If you mean in the ratio of 2 to 3 then it is 6 to 9
The ratio is 1:2The ratio is 1:2The ratio is 1:2The ratio is 1:2
Find the greatest common factor (GCF) of the numerator and the denominator of the ratio. If the GCF is 1 you are done. If not divide both, the numerator and the denominator, by the GCF and then you are done. For example: 3/7: the GCF is 1 so the ratio cannot be simplified. 3/6: the GCF is 3 so the ratio is 1/2
