1. Find the ratio of:
(a) 5 to 50 paise
(b) 15 kg to 210 g
(c) 9 m to 27 cm
(d) 30 days to 36 hours
2. In a computer lab, there are 3 computers for every 6 students. How many
computers will be needed for 24 students?
Answers
Answer:
- a) 10:1
5 rupee = 500 paise. Ratio of 5:50 = 10:1.
b) 1500/21 = 1500:21 .
c) 1500/21 = 1500:21 .
d) To convert days into hours, multiply the number of days to 24 (Since, 1 day has 24 hours). which shows that the ratio of 30 days to 36 hours is 20 hours to 1 hour.
2.Since, every 6 students need 3 computers. Hence, every 1 student needs 3 ÷6 computers.
Step by step explanation:-
☆For finding ratio their units should be same Then only we can find ratio
______________________________
1) Ratio of 5rs to 50 paise
Here units are not same
So,convert 5rs to paise
1 Rupee = 100 paisa
5rs = 500 paisa
Finding ratio
5rs : 50 paisa
500 paisa : 50 paisa
50 : 1
_____________________________
b) 15kg to 210g
Here also units are not same
1kg = 1000g
15 kg = 15,000 g
So,
Finding ratio:-
15kg : 210g
15,000g: 210g
1500g : 21g
500g : 7g
500 : 7
______________________________
c) 9m : 27cm
1m = 100cm
9m = 900cm
Finding ratio
9m : 27cm
900cm : 27cm
100cm :3 cm
100 : 3
______________________________
d) 30 days : 36hrs
1 day = 24hrs
2days = 48 hrs
like that
30 days = 30 × 24
= 720 hrs
So, 30 days = 720hrs
Finding ratio:---
30days: 36hrs
720 hrs : 36hrs
20 : 1

2) Given ,
3 computers for 6students
First we will find For each students how many computers required
6 ÷ 3 = 2computers
For each students 2 computers required
For 24 students
Required computers are. 24 × 2 = 48computers
So, for 24 students 48 computers are required
