For every pound a company spends on advertising, it spends £0.59 on its website.

Amount Spent on Advertising = £1

Amount Spent on Website = £0.59

Therefore:

Amount Spent on Advertising : Amount Spent on Website

= 1 : 0.59

Multiply both sides by 100

= 100: 59

The ratio of the amount spent on advertising to its website as a ratio in its simplest form is 100:59 in its simplest form.

Answer 2

Answer:

£100 : £59

Step-by-step explanation:

The said company spends £0.59 on its website for every pound spent on advertisement. This implies that out of £1.00 spent on advertisement by the company, £0.59 is for website placements.

Thus, the rate of the amount spent on advertisement to amount spent on website is given as:

             £1.00 : £0.59

To convert this to the nearest whole number, multiply through by 100, so that the ratio becomes;

£100.00 : £59.00

Therefore, the ratio expressed in its simplest form is £100 : £59
