Set up each ratio as a fraction and reduce both fractions. What do you get?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Could you show me how and I might get it.

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

I'll show you one ratio, then you do the second one.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'll try

OpenStudy (mathstudent55):

The first ratio mentioned is LQ : QM. We can write that ratio as LQ : QM as the problem does, or we can write it as a fraction, as \(\dfrac{LQ}{QM} \) Now we look up the values of LQ and QM. LQ = 12 Now we figure out how long QM is.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

From L to M it'll be 100. But if I subtract 12 by 100 I get, 88.
