22:1
Since the antecedent of the ratio is prime, it is impossible to cancel this ratio of 17:48 down any further.
17 is the ratio of 17 and 1 ... nice and rational.
17:23 is the tidiest ratio.
It is already in its simplest ratio because 17 is a prime number but if it were 7 boys to 21 girls then the ratio would be 1 to 3
22:1
The ratio of composite numbers 6,3,4,12,18 and 17 to prime numbers would be 9,15,21 and 25. This is taught in math.
Since the antecedent of the ratio is prime, it is impossible to cancel this ratio of 17:48 down any further.
17 is the ratio of 17 and 1 ... nice and rational.
17:23 is the tidiest ratio.
17:3 if you're looking for unit ratio, divide both 3 and 17 by three. (which wouldn't be a whole number...) It can be written : 17:3 17 to 3 17/3
It is already in its simplest ratio because 17 is a prime number but if it were 7 boys to 21 girls then the ratio would be 1 to 3
3 to 1 is 51 to 17. So it's bigger than 18 to 17.
Divide one of them by the other one. The ratio of 2 to 6 is 2/6 = 1/3 . The ratio of 6 to 2 is 6/2 = 3 .
8/17, and that cannot be simplified further.
68 percent as a ratio is 68/100 or 17/25.
S= present age of sameet M = present age of meeakshi] Currently: (S/M)=(4/5) Therefore: S*5= M*4 In 6 years: (S+6)/(M+6) = (14/17) S*17 + 18 = M*14 Solving for S: plug in M=S*(5/4) S*17 + 18 = S*(5/4)*14 = (S*35/2) 18 = S*(1/2) S=36 and therefore M = 45 In 12 years(after the current 6): they will be 54 and 63 respectively. So the ratio of their ages will be 18 to 21
