Basic Math Ratios

Introduction for basic math ratios:
A relation is getting form the comparison of two quantities like in some wisdom is called a ratio. Ratio will be show by the terms of fraction, that is, a:b is equal to a/b For example 25 is `1/4` of the hundred, Therefore, the ratio of 25 to 100 is `1/4` We can write it in ratio as 1:4.

Example Problems for Basic Math Ratios:
Example 1 by basic math ratios:

Find the ratio of 70 centimeters to 5 meters in its simplest form.

Solution:

5 m = 5 `xx` 100 cm

Therefore, 5 m = 500 cm

Therefore, the ratio of 70 cm to 4  m = 50cm: 500 cm

Now we have to cancel out the units. So we get

70: 500

Now we have to divide both terms by 10. So we get

7:50

Example 2 by basic math ratios:

Find the ratio of 500 m to 1.4 km in its simplest form.

Solution:

1 km = 1000 m

1.4 km = 1.4 `xx` 1000

Therefore, 1.4 km = 1400 m

Therefore, the ratio of  500 meter to 1.4 km = 500 m : 1400 m

Now we have to cancel out the units. So we get,

500:1400

Now we have to divide both terms by100. So we get

5:14

Example 3 by basic math ratios:

Find the ratio of 40 minutes to 5 hours in its simplest form.

Solution:

1 hour = 60 minutes

5 hours = 5 `xx` 60 minutes

Therefore, 5 hours = 300 minutes

Therefore, the ratio of 40 minutes to 5 hours = 40 min : 300 min

Now we have to cancel out the units. So we get

40: 300

Now we have to divide both terms by 10. So we get

4:30

Now we have to divide both terms by 2. So we get

2:15
