Question

There are 20 squid and 36 eels in a fish tank. What is the ratio of squids to eels? What is the rate of squids to eels? What about the simplified ratio and unit rate?

Answer 1

Answer:

Ratio: 20:36

Rate: 20 squids per 36 eels

Simplified ratio:

$= \frac{20}{36 } = \frac{10}{18} = \frac{5}{9}$

Unit ratio:

20/36 squids per eel (dividing by 36)

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of squid in the tank = $20$

Number of eels in the tank = $36$

Rate of squids to eels will be obtained by creating a fraction of number of squids over number of eels

Rate of squid to eels = $\frac{20}{36}$

also ratio of squid to eels will be written as $20:36$

Simplified ratio = $\frac{20}{36} = \frac{5}{9} = 5:9$

Unit rate will be defined as number of squid per eels

Unit rate = $\frac{20}{36} = 0.55$
