The ratio of a number a to another number b ( where b ≠ 0) is a fraction a/b and it is written a : b , the first term a is called antecedent and the second term is called consequent

Solution :

Step 1 of 3 :

Write down the given quantities

The quantities are 60 cm and 2.5 m

Step 2 of 3 :

Express them with same unit

The given quantities are of different unit

We express them with same unit

2.5 m = 2.5 × 100 cm = 250 cm

Step 3 of 3 :

Find the ratio
