To write a ratio as a fraction, we simply take the first number in the ratio and make it the numerator while taking the second number in the ratio and making it the denominator.

Because we want the ratio of engines to box cars, our ratio should be:

number of engines/number of box cars

When we substitute in our respective values, we get:

4/18

To simplify this ratio, we have to find the GCF, or greatest common factor of the numerator and the denominator, which in this case is 2. To simplify, we divide both the numerator and the denominator by the GCF, as follows:

4/2 / 18/2

When we simplify, we get:

2/9

Therefore, your answer is 2/9.

Hope this helps!

Ivan and Kate live 40 miles apart. Ivan leaves his house at 8:00 a.m.
Triss [41]

Answer: Time at which the meet = 10:17:24 am

Step-by-step explanation: Speed of Ivan = 12 mph

Speed of Kate = 16 mph

Total distance traveled = Initial separation = 40 miles

Ivan leaves his house at 8:00  a.m and Kate leaves her house at 9:30  a.m

If t is the time of catch up after Ivan starting, time taken by Kate is t - 1.5,

We have

            Distance = Speed x Time

         Total distance traveled = Distance traveled by Kate + Distance traveled by Ivan

       40 = t x 12 + (t-1.5) x 16

        40 = 28t - 24

         28t = 64

             t = 2.29 hours

So after 2.29 hours of Ivan's starting they meet,

Time = 8:00 am + 2.29 hours = 10:00 am + 0.29 x 60 minutes = 10:17am + 0.4 x 60 seconds = 10:17:24 am

Time at which the meet = 10:17:24 am
