Answer:

Answer 2

Given:

Number of notebooks Reema has = 24

Number of books Reema has = 18

To find:

The ratio of the number of notebooks to books.

Solution:

Number of notebooks = 24

Number of books = 18

We know that ratio tells how many times one number contains the other. To obtain the ratio we write the smallest factors of both the numbers which are not divisible by each other.

Here to find the ratio of Notebooks to books we will first write the number of notebooks than the number of books

Ratio = 24:18

but we can see that both 18 and 24 have a common factor of 6, so we will divide both the numbers by 6. the ratio obtained will be

Ratio = 4:3

Therefore the ratio of the number of notebooks to the number of books will be 4:3
