Which ratio is equivalent to 6 : 30?
just think about what a ratio expresses: 6/30
this is multiple choice you need to attach the choices
A. 1 : 6 B. 1 : 5 C. 1 : 3 D. 1 : 24
you could multiply both numbers by 2 to get another ratio or you could decide them by the same number
b
so if this ratio equals 6/30 ---> then you could simplify it to 3/15, etc.
1:5 6/3=2 and 30/3=10 then 2/2=1 10/2-5 so 1 : 5
To fully simplify the ratio, divide both parts by the GCF of 6 and 30.
Try Multiplying Both By 2
what could 3/15 simplify to? @lee_actress … for future reference, @Cmonkeys32 , please do not provide answers without explaining the process a bit more thoroughly, thank you
the answer is b because 6 goes into 30 5 times
Thank you all!
