Question

Wo numbers are in the ratio of 2 to 3. If the smaller number is 18, the larger number is

Answer 1

The simplified ratio is 2:3. Since the smaller number when it's not simplified is 18, let's divide 18 by 2 to get our factor.
18/2 = 9.
So we can multiply 9 by 3 to get the missing larger number.
9 x 3 = 27.
Your missing number is 27, hope this helps!
