Answer 1

Answer:

5 hours = 300 minutes

ratio = 300/180 = 5:3

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

The ratio of 5 hours to 180 minutes is 5 : 3.

To find the ratio between two quantities or to compare them, we first need to convert them to a single unit of measurement.

Converting both to hours (Method 1):

Quantity 1 = 5 hours

Quantity 2 = 180 minutes

                 = 180/60 hours

                 = 3 hours

Thus, the ratio of the two quantities is  = Quantity 1 / Quantity2

                                                                = 5 hours / 3 hours

                                                                = 5 : 3

Converting both to minutes (Method 2):

Quantity 1 = 5 hours

                 = 5 * 60 minutes   [ as 1 hour = 60 minutes ]

                 = 300 minutes

Quantity 2 = 180 minutes

Thus, the ratio of the two quantities is  = Quantity 1 / Quantity2

                                                                = 300 minutes / 180 minutes

                                                                = (5*60) / (3*60)

                                                                = 5 : 3

Hence, the ratio of the given two quantities in hours and minutes is 5 : 3.
