No.Natural numbers by definition are whole: integers. However, if the numerator cannot be divided evenly by the denominator, or even if the numerator is less than the denominator, then it is impossible for such a ratio to result in an integer. Such ratios cannot simplify into natural numbers. (Note: This assumes that 0 is not a natural number--there is a disagreement over its membership. If 0 is considered a natural number, than any ratio with a 0 in the numerator but anything else in the denominator results in 0. A ratio with a nonzero numerator and a zero denominator is undefined. A 0/0 ratio is considered an indeterminate form and goes into calculus).
If the magnesium is not polished, there may be impurities or oxides on the surface that could affect the reported mole ratio of oxygen to magnesium. This could result in a higher reported mole ratio due to the presence of excess oxygen-containing compounds on the surface, leading to an inaccurate measurement of the actual ratio of oxygen to magnesium.
The gender ratio at UCLA is approximately 50.7% female and 49.3% male, making it fairly balanced between male and female students.
A bar graph or a line graph would be suitable for comparing facts and numbers on quantities. These types of charts visually represent data to make it easier to understand the relationships between different values.
A ratio is solved by comparing the two quantities mentioned in the ratio. To solve a ratio, you need to find the equivalent ratio where the two quantities are in the same units. This can involve simplifying or scaling up the ratio to make the comparison easier.
No; depends on the signs of the rational numbers.

It could certainly be described as a simple ratio of positive integers.

Yes.
"Natural number" usually refers to the set of all positive integers (1,2,3,4,...), although zero is sometimes included in the definition (0,1,2,3,4,...). A fraction is a representationof a number as a ratio between two numbers. Consequently any natural number can be represented as the number divided by 1, i.e. 7 = 7/1. A natural number can also be represented as that same ratio with the top and bottom multiplied by the same number, i.e. 7 = 7/1 = 14/2 = 35/5.Generally when you represent a natural number as a fraction you would no longer be calling it a natural number, rather you would refer to it as a fraction. Note that "fraction" is often used interchangeably with the term "rational number". The set of Rational numbers includes all numbers that can be represented as a ratio of integers, i.e. as fractions. Since all natural numbers can be represented as fractions, all natural numbers are included in the set of rational numbers - but not all rational numbers are natural numbers.
Yes.
Yes.
real number
If you restrict yourself to natural numbers, it is 25/25 = 1/1.
No. Probability is always represented as a positive ratio/fraction/percent.
In general, no. It is possible though. (2pi)/pi is rational. pi2/pi is irrational. The ratio of two rationals numbers is always rational and the ratio of a rational and an irrational is always irrational.
