Question

Compare the ratios (1:8) and (4:11).

Answer 1

Answer:

The ratio 4:11 is greater

Step-by-step explanation:

1:8 means $\frac{1}{8}$  and 4:11 means $\frac{4}{11}$

Now in order to compare the ratios we have to do cross multiplication.

$\frac{1}{8}$ × $\frac{4}{11}$

1x11=11 and 4x8=32

4:11 is greater because the 32 is greater than 11
