Imran bought 2 liters of oil and Vijay bought 500ml of oil. Find the ratio of quantities of oil bought by Imran to oil bought by Vijay.

Answer 1

Answer:

4:1

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that, Imran bought 2 liters of oil and Vijay bought 500 ml of oil at the same time.

Now, we are asked to find the ratio of quantities of oil bought by Imran to oil bought by Vijay.

We know that 1 liter is equivalent to 1000 milliliters.

So, 2 liters of oil is equivalent to 2000 ml.

Hence, the required ratio will be 2000:500 i.e. 4:1 (Answer)

{We just have divided the terms in the ratio with 500}
