Remember that ratios are essentially fractions without fraction bars...
If they asked to find the ration of 19.50 to 16.25 you would set them up like so....
19.50 : 16.25 -----> since fractions can be simplified so can ratios in the same manner
the ratio you would end up with is <u>6 : 5</u><u />
Ratios can be easily remembered and solved if you understand the link between them and fractions.
I hope this helps! :D

-5y-6y is -11y=-22 so y=2
The answer is b because 7 plus 2 equals 9 and a equals whole amount then his current amount is A-9
Using a system of equations, it is found that one large jar holds 6 ounces and one small jar holds 4 ounces.
<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>
A system of equations is when two or more variables are related, and equations are built to find the values of each variable.
In this problem, the variables are:
- Variable l: Weight that a large jar holds.
- Variable s: Weight that a small jar holds.
One large jar and five small jars can hold 26 ounces of jam, hence:
l + 5s = 26, which is the first equation in matrix form.
Then:
l = 26 - 5s.
One large jar minus one small jar can hold 2 ounces of jam, hence:
l - s = 2, which is the second equation in matrix form:
Then:
l = 2 + s = 26 - 5s
2 + s = 26 - 5s
6s = 24
s = 4.
l = 26 - 5s = 6.
