They multiplied it because there is a decimal number which is 17.5 so therefore they didn't keep it in the simplest form and thus multiplied it by 2. This is because ratio numbers should not be in a decimal and fractional form and it always needs to be in a proper proportion.

Hope it helps !!!!!!!!
