Answer:

the ration to the money spend on ads to website is 4:3

The amount spent on advertising to the amount spent on its website as a ratio in its simplest form is: 4: 3

Given that:

  • For every pound, the company spends on advertising i.e. £1
  • the company spends £0.75 on its website.

Thus, the ratio of the amount spent on the advertising and the website is computed as:

£1: £ 0.75

Since a ratio can be expressed in a fraction when solving to its simplest form, then we have:

[tex]\mathbf{\dfrac{1}{0.75}}[/tex]

Let's multiply both the numerator and the denominator by 100 to shift the decimal in two places in 0.75

Then, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{=\dfrac{1\times 100}{0.75 \times 100}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{=\dfrac{ 100}{75 }}[/tex]

Divide both sides by 5;

[tex]\mathbf{=\dfrac{ 20}{15 }}[/tex]

Divide both sides by 5;

[tex]\mathbf{\dfrac{4}{3}}[/tex]

Therefore, the amount spent on advertising to the amount spent on its website in ratio is 4:3
