Why is it important to reduce fractions to simplest form?
To make the numbers involved in the ratio smaller and therefore (possibly) easier to comprehend. It also keeps teachers, schools and examiners happy ;). At the same time, we spend a lot of effort looking for similar fractions. Finding percentages, for example, are instances when we are moving away from reducing fractions. For addition and subtraction of fractions we need to look for similar fractions which, again, is a move in the opposite direction.

What is a ratio about?
There are two kinds of ratios. One is the ratio of a circle, which is half the circle's diameter, (which is the length of the circle across), which can be used to find the circles area. (the ratio squared multiplied by pi). The other ratio is something that looks like this 1:2 which work similar to fractions. Such as, for every one ____ there are two ___.
How do you validate that fractions are equivalent?

What is the difference between a ratio and a prportion?

What is the property of equivalent fractions?
The numerator:denominator ratio is the same.
How do you work out a mathematical ratio?
Mathematical ratios are similar to fractions or decimals. It is the comparison between 2 different number of objects on either side to determine the equality between the two.
What kind of problem are fractions?
They are division or ratio problems in math.
Which ratio is equivalent to 12 54 in fractions?
2:9
How the ratio of volume is related to ratio of sides of similar cubes?
The ratio of volumes is directly proportional to the cube of the ratio of their sides. And, incidentally, all cubes are similar.
What is a comparison of two numbers variables that can be written in fractions forms?
