3.5 to 4write the Ratio as a fraction in simplest formwith whole numbers

Answer 1

So we need to write the ratio 3.5 to 4 as a fraction in simplest form with whole numbers. The ratio is equal to:

$\frac{3.5}{4}$

We need to re-write 3.5 as a fraction of whole numbers. For example:

$3.5=\frac{7}{2}$

Then we have:

$\frac{3.5}{4}=\frac{\frac{7}{2}}{4}=\frac{7}{2}\cdot\frac{1}{4}=\frac{7\cdot1}{2\cdot4}=\frac{7}{8}$

We can simplify this fraction. Then the answer is:

$\frac{7}{8}$
