Divide the numerator by the denominator. The answer, divided by 1, is the relevant ratio.
Unit Ratio- a ratio that has a denominator of 1
u find the common denominator
The rule depends on what you wish to do with the ratio.
When expressed as a ratio of two integers (not intergers!), the simplest form for the integer but not others, has 1 as the denominator.
Divide the numerator by the denominator. The answer, divided by 1, is the relevant ratio.
Divide the numerator of the original fraction y its denominator.
Divide the numerator of the ratio by the denominator. The answer, with a denominator is the required unit fraction. And I have never ever used a diagram - I have no clue what it is or how to use it!
You divide the numerator of the ratio by its denominator.
Find an equivalent ratio so that the denominator = 1. This may require the numerator to be a fraction.
A unit ratio.

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
The rule depends on what you wish to do with the ratio.
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
A unit rate is a ratio in which the numerator or denominator is 1 unit.
