Answer 1

Solution :-

→ Rs.2 and 50 paise : Rs.3 and 50 paise .

we know that,

• Rs. 1 = 100 paise .

so,

→ (2 * 100) + 50 : (3 * 100) + 50

→ 200 + 50 : 300 + 50

→ 250 : 350

dividing both ratio by 10,

→ 25 : 35

dividing both ratio by 5 now,

→ 5 : 7 (Option 1) (Ans.)

Hence, the ratio between the two given quantities in simplest form is 5 : 7.

Solution:

2 Rs 50 paise ; 3 Rs 50 paise

Convert 2 Rupees 50 paise into Paise:

1 Rupee = 100 paise

2 Rupees = 2 x 100

3 Rupees = 3 x 100

3 Rupees = 300 paise

3 Rs 50 paise = 300 paise + 50 paise

3 Rs 50 paise = 350 paise

250 paise : 350 paise

Remove zeroes

=> 25 : 35

Dividing by 5

=> 5 : 7

Hence, the simplest form is 5:7
