Find the ratio of 5 days to 20 hours
(5*24)/20 = ?
5 days : 20 hours
= 120 days : 20 days
= 120 : 20
= 6 : 1
16m to 48cm
To find the ratio of 5 days to 20 hours, we need to convert both quantities to the same unit of time. Since there are 24 hours in a day, we can convert 5 days to hours by multiplying it by 24:
5 days × 24 hours/day = 120 hours
Now, we have the quantities in the same unit of time. The ratio of 5 days to 20 hours is:
120 hours : 20 hours
To simplify the ratio, we divide both values by their greatest common divisor, which in this case is 20:
120 hours ÷ 20 = 6
20 hours ÷ 20 = 1
Therefore, the simplified ratio is:
6 : 1
