1. write the ratio in simplest form 16:24
A. 1:2
B. 4:3
C. 3:4
D. 2:3
pweez halp me
btw i just found out ms. sue died 10 years ago 💀☠
16:24
= 2*8 : 3*8
= 2 : 3
yes, Ms Sue has passed , we miss her a lot.
She would have loved to do the kind of problem you just asked.
omg
To write the ratio 16:24 in simplest form, you need to find the greatest common factor (GCF) of the two numbers and then divide both numbers by that factor.
First, find the GCF of 16 and 24. The factors of 16 are 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16, and the factors of 24 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, and 24. The GCF between 16 and 24 is 8.
Now divide both numbers by 8:
16 ÷ 8 = 2
24 ÷ 8 = 3
So, the simplified ratio of 16:24 is 2:3. Therefore, the correct answer is D. 2:3.
