A ratio is normally expressed as two numbers separated by a colon, 5:4, 8:13....and so on. These ratios are in their simplest form as they numbers have no common factors. A ratio such as 6 : 8 can be simplified to give 3 : 4 as both numbers are divisible by 2. The rules when converting a ratio to a fraction are :- 1) The number of the left-hand side of the ratio becomes the numerator of the fraction. 2) The two quantities must be stated in the same units. 3) The fraction should be written in its lowest terms. EXAMPLE, 40 : 216 expressed as a fraction = 40/216 = 5/27.
2.00 Move the decimal (200.) left 2 spaces :)
You type the digits, one after the other, from left to right.
There is none, you have to put 5 into eight, which is one, whats left over is 3/5. So its 1 3/5 which can't be simplified.
Move the decimal two spots to the left. This will leave you with 0.0204
