In this question , we have to simplify the given ratio, which is
12xy:3x
First we have to see which factor is common in numerator and denominator,
We can write 12 as 3 times 4, that is

So the common factor is 3x.
In the next step, we cancel out 3x

And that's the required simplified form .
<span>1. </span>When given a raw score, it must be converted
into a z-score (standard score). Raw scores cannot be placed on a normal
distribution curve because they do not have the same means and standard
deviations, but when it is converted into a z-score, the number of standard
deviations above or below the population mean can be measured. The z-scores on
the center are average, the scores on the left are lower than average and the
scores on the right are higher than average.
<span>2. </span>A z-score is a standard score which can be
placed on a normal distribution curve. A z-score indicates the distance of the
standard deviations from the mean (center of the curve).
