ratio = 4.8/6.4
multiply top and bottom by 10 to get rid of decimal point = 48/64
reduce
48 and 64 are both divisible by 8 = (48 divided by 8)/(64 divided by 8)
6 / 8
6 and 8 are both divisible by 2 = (6 divided by 2)/(8 divided by 2)
3/4
The numerator of the second ratio and the denominator of the first ratio are called the means, and the numerator of the first ratio and the denominator of the second ratio are called the extremes. The product of the means equals the product of the extremes.
It is 113/93. You can simplify the ratio of required.
Divide numerator and denominator by 3.2 . Arrive at the ratio: 3/8 or 0.375 .
I guess you mean the ratio of the areas; it depends if the 2 rectangles are "similar figures"; that is their matching sides are in the same ratio. If they are similar then the ratio of their areas is the square of the ratio of the sides.
It is simply 60:40. You could simplify that to 3:2.
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
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.
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!!
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.)
simplify the ratio 18b^2 to 45b
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).
