Question

Express 25cm to 0.5m as a ratio in its lowest form.

Answer 1

Answer:

0.5m= 0.5×100 = 50cm

Ratio =25cm/50cm

=1/2

Ratio =1:2

Answer 2

Concept

Ratio in mathematics indicates how much times one number contains the other. if there are eight apples and six watermelons in a bowl of fruit, then the ratio of apples to watermelons is eight to six (that is, 8:6, which is equivalent to the ratio 4:3).

Given

Numbers are 25 cm and 0.5m

Find

Express 25cm to 0.5m as a ratio in its lowest form.

Solution

As we know that

1m = 100cm

0.5m = 100 * 0.5

0.5m = 50cm

We need to find the ratio in lowest form

Ratio = 25/50

Ratio = 1/2

Ratio 1 : 2

25cm to 0.5m as a ratio in its lowest form is 1 : 2
