Question

Find the ratio of 1ft. 4 in to 1yard

Answer 1

since you cannot divide values of different units you need to convert them both to the same units

I suggest you use inches

How many inches in 1 ft 4 in?
How many inches in 1 yard?

divide those 2 numbers to get your answer

Answer 2

Do this first:

How many inches in 1 ft 4 in?
How many inches in 1 yard?

Answer 3

So 1:3

Answer 4

16in
12
1:3

Answer 5

no - you have given the number of inches in 1 FOOT

how many in 1 YARD?

Answer 6

(and BTW - even if you were right 16:12 is 4:3 NOT 1:3)

Answer 7

36 in 1yard

Answer 8

ok

so the ration is got by dividing 1ft4/1yard
both values in inches...

Answer 9
