Question

Express each ratio as a fraction in its simplest form: 0.034 yards to 60 feet

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{17}{10000}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a ratio;

0.034 yards to 60 feet

We are supposed to express the ratio in its simplest form.

First we will ensures the units are the same;

we need to know that;

1 yard = 3 feet

Therefore;

0.034 yards = (0.034 × 3 ft)

                    = 0.102 ft

Thus; in ratio form; 0.102 ft : 60 ft

                             = 0.102 : 60

In fraction form; 0.102 ÷ 60

                         = $\frac{17}{10000}$

Therefore, the simplest ratio form as a fraction is $\frac{17}{10000}$
