Question

Rahul orders cricket bats and balls. He orders 15 bats and 12 balls. What is the ratio of bats to balls?

Answer 1

The ratios of bats to balls would be the number of bats over the number of balls:

15/12

This can be reduced because both numbers are multiples of 3, so divide each one by 3:

15/12 = 5/4

Answer: 5/4

Answer 2

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{\sf 5 : 4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Bats = 15

Balls = 12

Ratio of bats to balls = 15 : 12

Divide by 3

= 15 / 3 : 12 : 3

= 5 : 4

$\rule[225]{225}{2}$

Hope this helped!
