Question

Find a ratio equivalent to 15/60

Answer 1

Answer:

$\large\boxed{\dfrac{15}{60}=\dfrac{5}{20}=\dfrac{3}{12}=\dfrac{1}{4}}$

or

$\large\boxed{\dfrac{15}{60}=\dfrac{30}{120}=\dfrac{45}{180}=\dfrac{60}{240}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide the numerator and the denominator by the same number:

$\dfrac{15}{60}\\\\=\dfrac{15:5}{60:5}=\dfrac{3}{12}\\\\=\dfrac{15:3}{60:3}=\dfrac{5}{20}\\\\=\dfrac{15:15}{60:15}=\dfrac{1}{4}\\\vdots$

or

Multiply the numerator and the denominator by the same number:

$\dfrac{15}{60}\\\\=\dfrac{15\cdot2}{60\cdot2}=\dfrac{30}{120}\\\\=\dfrac{15\cdot3}{60\cdot3}=\dfrac{45}{180}\\\\=\dfrac{15\cdot4}{60\cdot4}=\dfrac{60}{240}\\\vdots$

Answer 2

Answer:

30/120, 45/180, 60/240, etc.
