The question cannot be answered because the ratio of the polynomials cannot simplify to "3x-12x plus 1" since that is not a simplified form: it simplifies to -9x + 1.
A rational number
A rational algebraic expression is the ratio of two polynomials, each with rational coefficients. By suitable rescaling, both the polynomials can be made to have integer coefficients.
Written as a ratio, the correct notation would be 120:54, which simplifies to 20:9.
The ratio of 48 to 40 can be simplified by dividing both numbers by their greatest common factor, which is 8. This simplifies the ratio to 6:5. This means that for every 6 units of 48, there are 5 units of 40.
The ratio of 26 tents to 65 campers can be simplified by dividing both numbers by their greatest common factor, which is 13. This simplifies the ratio to 2 tents to 5 campers. This means that for every 2 tents, there are 5 campers.

It is an algebraic fraction, consisting of (one polynomial) divided by (the other one).
It simplifies as a ratio of 1:4

24:16:14 simplifies to 12:8:7
One of the main benefits of financial ratio analysis is that it simplifies financial statements. Another advantage is that vital information is easily highlighted.
In order to solve this problem, I will convert the 3 feet into 36 inches, then you have a ratio of 8:36 which simplifies to 2:9.
A rational number is able to be represented as a ratio of polynomials. pi/e is a ratio of irrational numbers, neither of which can be represented as a ratio of polynomials, and so I would conclude that pi/e is not rational. But it's a good question, because what if two irrational numbers could cancel out their irrationality, like two negative numbers! A quotient of two irrational numbers can be a rational number. Trivial example 2pi/pi = 2.
The ratio of 48 to 40 can be simplified by dividing both numbers by their greatest common factor, which is 8. This simplifies the ratio to 6:5. This means that for every 6 units of 48, there are 5 units of 40.
To determine which set of ratios are equivalent, we can simplify each pair of numbers. The ratio of 36 to 918 simplifies to 1:25.5, while 47 to 48 simplifies to approximately 0.979. The ratio of 12 to 34 is approximately 0.353, and 216 to 116 simplifies to approximately 1.862. None of the ratios are equivalent to each other.
To find the ratio of 2 days to 4 weeks, we need to convert the units to the same time frame. Since there are 7 days in a week, 4 weeks is equal to 4 x 7 = 28 days. Therefore, the ratio of 2 days to 4 weeks is 2:28, which simplifies to 1:14.
