Question

Find the ratio of the following. 45 Paisa to Re 1

Answer 1

The ratio of 45 paisa to 1 re is 9:20.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the ratio:

1. We write the terms in form of a fraction.

2. We divide the terms with a common factor.

As we know, to write as a fraction both terms must have the same unit.

1 Re = 100 paisa

Now, writing as fraction 45 paisa to 100 paisa

= $\frac{45}{100}$

Dividing the terms with the common factor

= $\frac{9}{20}$

To write the terms as the ratio, we express them in a:b format.

a = numerator; b = denominator.

Hence the ratio = 9:20.
