Question

Write the following comparison as a ratio reduced to lowest terms. 97 minutes to 4 hours

Answer 1

97/ 240

1) Firstly let's turn hours into minutes, so we can have the same unit for both

4 hours = 4 * 60' = 240'

2) So let's write that ratio:

`(97)/(240)`

Since it can't be further simplified, then we can write 97: 240 as our ratio.
