Remember that ratios are essentially fractions without fraction bars...

If they asked to find the ration of 19.50 to 16.25 you would set them up like so....

19.50 : 16.25 -----> since fractions can be simplified so can ratios in the same manner

the ratio you would end up with is 6 : 5

Ratios can be easily remembered and solved if you understand the link between them and fractions.

I hope this helps! :D

Answer: ok so if 60% is under 25 then we can assume 40% is over 25, and then do 40% of 450,000, which is 180,000 .

so we can say that 180,000 people in the town are over 25 years old
