Question: The ratio of 36 apples to 18 children?
Answer:
- [tex]\boxed{\bold{\purple{36\: : \:18}}}[/tex]
- lowest term [tex]\boxed{\bold{\purple{2\: : \:1}}}[/tex]
Solution: Divide each given number using their gcf greatest common factor.
Their greatest common factor is 18, so divide them both to 18.
- [tex]\boxed{\bold{18 \: \div \: 18 \: = \: 1}}[/tex]
- [tex]\boxed{\bold{36 \: \div \: 18 \: = \: 2}}[/tex]
In one;
- [tex] \begin{gathered} \begin{gathered}\begin{gathered}\boxed{\begin{array}{l} \bold\red{\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: Ratio \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: } \\ \\ \rm{\: \: apples \: to \: children\: \:}\\ \tt{\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: 36 \: : \: 18} \\ \tt{\: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: 2 \: : \: 1} \end{array}}\end{gathered} \end{gathered}\end{gathered} [/tex]
