Question

Which ratio is greater? a) 7 : 8 or 2 : 3 b) 11 : 21 or 19 : 28​

Answer 1

Answer:

2:3

it is the greatest ratio as if all ratio total is 600 then 5x is equal to 500

x is equal to 100

then larger value ratio then lesser the value of x

Answer 2

Answer:

a.) In two or more ratios, wherever the numerator and denominator differs by one,  

the ratio with higher numerator is always the greater one.

7:8 > 2:3

b.)11:21= 11/21 =0.5238

19:28=19/28=0.6785

so that 19:28 > 11:21
