1/5 is the simplest form of the fraction
Hey!
-------------------------------------------------
Solution:
The ratio is FEMALES to MALES.
So its 18/16, 18:16, or 18 to 16.
~Now we need to simplify.
18:16 → 18/2:16/2 → 9:8
*Note* When you have a ratio you need to know which comes first. If you put males to females that incorrect. It has to be correct according to the question.

Answer:
It travels for 1 hour, then stops for 1 hour, and finally travels again for 3 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance changes over the first hour of travel, but then doesn't change for one hour, and then it continues on for the next three hours
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
let's break down 2,000,000 into its multiples,
Multiples of 2,000,000= 2⁷ × 5⁶
Using above values to find different combinations of length(l) and breadth (b) of rectangle and corresponding parameter of rectangle
- l=5, b=400,000 ,parameter= 2(5) + 2(400,000)= 800,010, total length of fence required= parameter+ side with shortest length= 800,015
- l=2 b=1,000,000 parameter= 2,000,004, shortest fence required= 2,000,008
- l=4, b= 500,000 parameter= 1,000,008, shortest fence required= 1,000,012
- From above, we can see a trend that the parameter of rectangle decreases if length and breadth are increased provided that area is constant. So, a rectangle will have shortest parameter if all of its sides are equal.
- length of side of rectangle with shortest possible parameter= 2^3 ×5^3= 1000 and breadth of side of rectangle with shortest possible parameter= 2^4× 5^3=2000
- Shortest possible length of fence= 2(2000)+2(1000)+1000=7000ft
