Question

A radio station plays 24 minutes of music out of every 30 minutes. Write two ratios that are equivalent to the ratio 24/30

Answer 1

You can simplify that answer. So, 24 and 30 are both multiples of 6 so divide them by six and you have your first ratio. 4/5. You can also multiply both sides by the same number and it'll still be equivalent. So, let's say you multiplied it by two, your next ratio would be 48/60 and it would be equivalent. Did this help?
