3 feet = 36 inches so a ratio which uses the same units of measurement for both measures, would be 36:24 which is equivalent to 3:2
7/12+5/9 is the same as 21/36+20/36 = 41/36

The ratio, as a fraction, is 7/12. The two steps are: -- Convert all units to inches (1 foot = 12 inches, so 3 feet = 36 inches) -- Reduce the ratio 21/36 (the numbers 21 and 36 have a GCF of 3) 21 divided by 3 = 7 36 divided by 3 is 12 21/36 = 7/12

To solve this problem, we can set up a proportion based on the similar triangles formed by the yardstick and its shadow, and the building and its shadow. The ratio of the height of the yardstick to its shadow is 36:21. We can use this ratio to find the height of the building by setting up the proportion: 36 inches / 21 inches = x / 168 feet. Solving for x, the height of the building would be 288 feet.
You can write this as 51:36.Note: You can simplify ratios the same way you simplify fractions; that is, if you find a number that is a factor of BOTH numbers, you can divide both numbers by that factor, to get an equivalent ratio.
9/12 is the same as 27/36
7 + 5 = 12.36/12 = 3so you multiply each number by 3 and get a ratio of...21:15
