ratios 4:3 and 20:15 are equivalent. If you equate them into fractions it will look like this. 4/3=20/15. if you multiply 4/3 to 5/5 the answer would be 20/15. Therefore, they are equivalent ratios.
5.5:4, 11:8, 22:16, & 44:32 *all* have the same ratio. Additional equal ratios can be determined by multiplying *both* the 11 and the 8 by any number. Example (1): "5" 5 x 11 and 5 x 8 for a 55:40 ratio. It is much more desirable to reduce the numbers to lowest whole form - hence expressed as 11:8 ("8 to 11"). A second example using "3/4" (or the decimal equal .75) .75 x 11 and .75 x 8 for an 8.25:6 ratio. Again, whole numbers are preferable unless they get very large.
Ratios are like fractions: to make an equivalent ratio you simply multiply both sides of the ratio by the same non-zero number. 1:2 is equivalent to 2:4 (both sides multiplied by 2). 10:12 is equivalent to 5:6 (both sides multiplied by 1/2).
Hi the best ratio is 1:1.25.Means that one level of rice equivalent to one and one-forth level of water.This ratio is sufficient to cook rice not overdone.
Hello, Read the definition of equivalent ratios. Choose the numbers a and b such that a/b=7/17. (Here is a HINT: The operation to perform to obtain a from 7 and b from 17 is the inverse operation that you use to reduce a fraction to its simplest form.) Once you dtermine how you are going to construct a and b, the calculator can then help you express each one as a single number. Sorry I cannot be more specific: You have to make a little effort to understand what you are supposed to be doing.
