Question

Which ratio forms a portion
With 9/15
A.3/6
B.2/3
C.12/30
D.6/10

Answer 1

Divide 9 by 15 to give a decimal value
Which of the options gives the same result?

Answer 2

Using my calculator I get 9/15 = to 0.6

Answer 3

Is it d or a

Answer 4

You're basically trying to find \[\large \sf \frac{9}{15} = \frac{a}{b}\] So the easiest way is to cross multiply, so \[\large \sf 9b=15a\] For the first option, using this method, it would go like this \[\large \sf \frac{9}{15}=\frac{3}{6}\]\[\large \sf 9 \times 6 = 15 \times 3\]\[\large \sf 54 \neq 45\] so that isn't the right option, and you can do the rest

Answer 5

I believe you're dealing with a"proportion," not a "portion." Check that out, please.

Hint: reduce the fraction 9/15 as much as possible.

Answer 6

Is it 3/6

Answer 7

A proportion is two ratios that are equal.
A ratio can be written in different ways, such as 2 to 3, 2:3, and 2/3, for example.
If you write the ratio as a fraction, then a proportion is writing 2 equal fractions.

Answer 8

You are given one ratio as a fraction: 9/15
Since you need to write a proportion, you need another fraction that is equivalent to 9/15.
You need to pick a choice that has a fraction equivalent to 9/15.

These are the steps to find your answer.
1. Reduce the given fraction 9/15 completely.
2. Reduce each choice completely until you find a choice that is equal to the reduced given fraction you found in step 1.

Answer 9

Can you reduce 9/15?
To reduce a fraction, divide the numerator and denominator by the largest number they are both divisible by.
What number are 9 and 15 divisible by?

Answer 10

Can you divide both 9 and 15 by 9 with no remainder? by 7? by 6? by 4? by 3? and so on.

Answer 11

so you know that 9/15 = (3*3)/(3*5) = ? what can you simplify there ?
and now from these choices where you will get same result after you have simplified them

A.3/6 = 3/(2*3) = ?
B.2/3
C.12/30 = (2*2*3)/(2*3*5)= ?
D.6/10 = (2*3)/(2*5) = ?

hope these will help you
