lys-0071 [83]

Answer: -\frac{8}{77}

Express in the form 1:n<br> 3:12
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

1:4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

3: 12

To express in the form 1:n

Consider how to make 3 equal to 1, we simply divide 3 by 3 to get 1 as such, we would also divide 12 by 3

3:12

= 3/3:12/3

= 1:4

Comparing with 1:n, it is safe to say that n = 4
