The equations to represent the relationship are ƒx3/5=4 4/5 and 4 4/5 divided 3/5 =f

<h3>Ratio and proportion</h3>

Fractions are written as a ratio of two integers. For instance a/b is a fraction.

If Anastacio distributed 4 4/5 kg of seed among several bird feeders and put 3/5 kg of seed in each feeder, the expression that represents the number of bird feeders that Anastacio filled is given as;

Number of bird feeder = 4 4/5 ÷ 3/5

f = 4 4/5 ÷ 3/5

Multiply both sides by

f * 3/5 = 4 4/5   ÷ 3/5 * 3/5

f * 3/5 = 4 4/5

Hence the equations to represent the relationship are ƒx3/5=4 4/5 and 4 4/5 divided 3/5 =f
