Question

2. Express each of the following ratios in simplest form.
(i) 36 : 90
(ii) 13:60​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(i) 36:90 =   36    =    36 ​÷ 18    =     2          (As the H.C.F. of 36 and 90 is 18.)

                  90          90 ​÷ 18            5

Since the H.C.F. of 2 and 5 is 1, the simplest form of 36:90 is 2:5.
