Question

A small company's net income for the first six months of the year was 76,500 for the last six months it was 100,000 what is the ratio for the first six months of the year to the last six months

Answer 1

Answer:

The ratio of net income in the first 6 months, to the last six months is $76,500 / $100,000. This simplifies intuitively as follows:

76500/100000

Dividing by 100: 765/1000

Dividing by 5: 153/200

The denominator 200 is only divisible by the prime numbers 2 and 5, and since the numerator 153 is not divisible by either 2 or 5, this means that this is in simplest form, and the final answer is 153/200.
