Answer 1

Answer:

The ratio will be 10 : 1 I think so

Answer 2

In context to question asked,

We have to determine the ratio of 5 km to 500 m.

As we know that,

Ratio of two or more quantity are determined only if the both the values have similar units.

So, converting 5 km into m.

As we know that,

1 km = 1000 m

So, $5\;km = (5\times 1000) = 5000\:m$

Now determining the ratio between 5 km to 500 m,

We will get,

$\frac{5000}{500} = \frac{50}{5} = \frac{10}{1}$

Hence, ratio of the given values, 5 km to 500 m will be 10:1.
