Question

45 employees are American, and 9 employees are Asian. What is the ratio of American employees to Asian Employees?

Answer 1

Answer:

The ratio of American employees to Asian employees is 5/1.

Step-by-step explanation:

45/9 needs to be simplified to find the ratio.

So you divide both sides of the ratio by the GCF, 9.

45 ÷ 9 = 5

9 ÷ 9 = 1

That will give you 5/1. Therefore, 45/9 = 5/1.

Answer 2

Answer:

5:1

Step-by-step explanation:

The original ratio would be 45:9 since there are 45 Americans for every 9 Asians and simplified it would be 5:1
