RATIO
1. In the sentence, “The ratio of girls to boys in Teacher Joy's class is 24:22. ' The ratio given can be simplified.
Yes, it can be simplified by dividing 24 and 22 to 2 since the GCF of 24 and 22 is 2
↬ We can simplify 24:22 to 12:11, therefore the statement is true.
2. When we simplify ratios, we use multiplication.
In simplifying ratios including fractions we use division. To simplify a ratio we should find the GCF and divide the given.
↬ Therefore the statement is false.
3. Ratios can also be expressed in fraction format.
Yes, we can also express ratio to fraction form just like what I did in number 1.
↬ Therefore the answer is true.
4. We can compare more than two things in ratios.
Yes, we can compare more than two things in ratio just like in number 4.
↬ Therefore the answer is true.
5. Marie bought three pencils, two sharpeners, four ballpens and three notebooks' In that sentence, the ratio of pencils to all the things bought by Marie can be simplified.
No, because they don't have a GCF that is greater than 1 that can simplify all the things that Marie bought.
↬ Therefore the answer is false.
