Given:

To Find:

The ratio of x to y

Solution:

The comparison or simplified form of two quantities that are of the same kind is referred to as a ratio.

This relation tells us how many times one quantity is equal to the other quantity.

To find the ratios, the two values must have the same units.

Therefore, first, we have to convert y = 3 hours to minutes.

1 hr = 60 minutes

∴ 3 hrs = 3 x 60 = 180 mins

Calculate the ratio,

30 mins : 180 mins

⇒ 1 : 6        (Ans.)

Therefore, the ratio is 1 : 6
