Question

Matters has 456:8 What s his rate

Answer 1

We are given ratio 456:8.

The given ratio can be written in fraction form as $\frac{456}{8}$

In order to find the rate, we need to divide 456 by 8, because it would give the unit value.

When we divide 456 by 8, we first take multiple of 8 closer to the number 45.

8*6=48 but it's greater than 45, so we would take 8*5 =40.

Subtracting 40 from 45, we get 5.

Getting 6 down, we get 56. Take multiple of 8 upto 56.

8*7= 56.

56 -56=0.

So, on dividing 456 by 8 we got 57.

Therefore, rate is 57 per unit.
