Question

Write the ratio as a fraction in simple form, with whole number in the numerator and denominator 2. 7 hr to 7. 2 hr

Answer 1

Answer:

  3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

A ratio is expressed in lowest terms by removing common factors from numerator and denominator.

  $\dfrac{2.7\text{ hr}}{7.2\text{ hr}}=\dfrac{3\cdot0.9\text{ hr}}{8\cdot0.9\text{ hr}}=\boxed{\dfrac{3}{8}}$
