Answer 1

Answer:

c) 8 : 3  f) 44 : 1

Step-by-step explanation:

c) Try to reduce the ratio further with the greatest common factor (GCF).

The GCF of 64 and 24 is 8

Divide both terms by the GCF, 8:

64 ÷ 8 = 8

24 ÷ 8 = 3

The ratio 64 : 24 can be reduced to lowest terms by dividing both terms by the GCF = 8 :

64 : 24 = 8 : 3

Therefore:

64 : 24 = 8 : 3

f)

Try to reduce the ratio further with the greatest common factor (GCF).

The GCF of 220 and 5 is 5

Divide both terms by the GCF, 5:

220 ÷ 5 = 44

5 ÷ 5 = 1

The ratio 220 : 5 can be reduced to lowest terms by dividing both terms by the GCF = 5 :

220 : 5 = 44 : 1  

Therefore:

220 : 5 = 44 : 1
