What isthe ratio of each of the following in simplest form 15 hours to 1day 750 grams to 2kg

To do: To find the ratio of each of the following in simplest form 15 hours to 1day 750 grams to 2kg

Solution:

15 hours to one day

Convert day to hours

1 day = 24 hours

15 : 24

$\frac{15}{24}  =  3 \times \frac{5}{3} \times 8$     [3 and 3 get cancel]

$\frac{15}{24}  =  \frac{5}{8}$

$\frac{5}{8}$ is the simplest form of 15 hours to one day.

Now,

750 grams to 2kg

Convert kg to grams

2 kg = 2000 grams

750 : 2000

 $\frac{50}{2000}$

$\frac{75}{200}  =  3 \times \frac{25}{8} \times 25$  [25 and 25 get cancel]

$\frac{3}{8}$ is the simplest form of 750 grams to 2 kg
