Answer 6

Ratios can be written in different ways such as:
x:y x to y \(\dfrac{x}{y}\)

All of the above expressions mean the ratio of x to y.

When you write a ratio as a fraction, the rules of fractions apply.

Let's write both of your ratios as fractions:

\(\dfrac{4}{7} \) and \(\dfrac{7}{4} \)

Since the rules of fractions apply to rations, the ratios 4 to 7 and 7 to 4 can only be equal if the fractions

\(\dfrac{4}{7} \) and \(\dfrac{7}{4} \)

are equal.

Are these fractions equal?
