Answer:
Hence the simplification of
is 
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>" Simplification is the process of replacing a mathematical expression by an equivalent one, that is simpler (usually shorter), </em>
<em>for example</em><em>: Simplification of a fraction to an irreducible fraction ". </em>
Here we are given a fraction as:

As both the numerator and denominator are divisible by a factor of 3 hence we take out the common factor and obtain the reduced fraction which is further irreducible.
As 66=3×22 and 81=3×27
Hence 
Hence the simplification of
is 
Given:
total = 750
ratio = 7 : 8
We need to get the ratio of the number to its total
7 + 8 = 15 ; 7/15 and 8/15 is the ratio of the number to its total.
We multiply these ratio to the total of 750
7/15 * 750 = 350
8/15 * 750 = 400
7:8 is equal to 350:400
