A fruit vendor has 28 pears and 16 oranges. What is the ratio of oranges to pears in simplest form?

OpenStudy (kobeni-chan):

16 to 28, when you put them in order To simplify, divide by their common factor of 4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well, how many pears and how many oranges are there? Put that with a colon, or fraction bar, and you have your ratio. Then, simplify it until you can't simplify it anymore.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it could be 16/28, depending the question.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

16:28 is the ratio But you have to get that in the simplest form so it would be 4:7
