Question

25cg:4g in lowest terms

Answer 1

Answer:

1:16.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given ratio of 25cg : 4g.

Here, cg is centigram and g is gram.

We know that,

1 g = 100 cg

So, 4 g = 400 cg

Now, using this conversion we get

$\dfrac{25\text{ cg}}{4\text{ g}}=\dfrac{25\text{ cg}}{400\text{ cg}}$

$\dfrac{25\text{ cg}}{4\text{ g}}=\dfrac{1}{16}$

$25\text{ cg}:4\text{ g}=1:16$

Therefore, the required ratio is 1:16.
