Question

Write the ratio of the diameter of ball A to the diameter of ball B

diameter of ball A: 44mm

diameter of ball B: 7.2 cm

the diameter written as a simplified fraction

Answer 1

"the ratio of the diameter of ball A to the diameter of ball B"
(diameter of ball A)
-> ----------------- = ?
(diameter of ball B)

Answer 2

Ratio will be:

\[\frac{Diameter \; of \; A}{Diameter \; of \; B} = \frac{44 \; mm}{7.2 \; cm}\]

Answer 3

its all different units.. must get to the same unit or she will take points off

Answer 4

It must be noted that :

you should make the units of the two diameters equal first..

Answer 5

oh right like
1 cm = 10mm

Answer 6

\[mm = 10^{-3}m\]
\[cm = 10^{-2} m\]

Answer 7

exactly i went towards cm..
put it back into a fraction and got 11/18

Answer 8

exactly i went towards cm..
put it back into a fraction and got 11/18

Answer 9

that ratio is correct :)

Answer 10

Ratio will be:

\[\frac{4.4}{7.2} \implies \frac{11}{18}\]

Answer 11

Good.. :)

Answer 12

Thank you!
