Question

At a factory, the ratio of defective parts to total number of parts is 3:200. Write an equivalent ratio.

Answer 1

Can't that ratio also be rewritten like this? \[\frac{ 3 }{ 200 }\]

Answer 2

Sooo, that's the answer?

Answer 3

No, I am basically trying to get you to understand that a ratio is also a fraction.

Answer 4

So if you multiplied that entire fraction by 2 what would you get?

Answer 5

1200 ?

Answer 6

2(3:200) = 6:400

Answer 7

6:400 ? <-- answer ?
