Let's convert one of these numbers:
1 foot = 12 inches

9 feet were 9*12=108 inches

so the ratio would be 42: 108

or we can simplify it: divide by 2:
21:54

divide by 3:
7:18

A ratio always stays the same no matter the unit or currency, so it doesn't matter which unit we convert it to.

Y_Kistochka [10]

Given:

Sharon uses 6.3 pints of blue paint and white paint to paint her bedroom walls.

\dfrac{4}{5}th of this amount is blue paint and the rest is white paint.

To find:

The pints of white paint did she use to paint her bedroom walls.

Solution:

We have,

Total paint used = 6.3 pints

Blue paint = \dfrac{4}{5}th of total paint used

                 = \dfrac{4}{5}\times 6.3

                 = 5.04

White paint = Total paint used - Blue paint

                   = 6.3-5.04

                   = 1.26

Therefore, Sharon uses 1.26 pints of white paint to paint her bedroom walls.
