Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{4}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

given the ratio

16 : 28 = $\frac{16}{28}$

Simplify by dividing the numerator/ denominator by the highest common factor of 16 and 28, that is 4

$\frac{16}{28}$ = $\frac{4}{7}$ ← in simplest form

Note a fraction is in simplest form when no other factor but 1 divides into the numerator/ denominator
