Write down each of these ratios in the form 1:n
a) 10mm:5cm
b) 12p:£6
a) 1:5 (dividing both values by 10, we get 1mm:0.5cm, and then multiplying by 10 again, we get 1:5)
b) 1:0.5 (dividing both values by 12, we get 1p:£0.5, and then multiplying by 12 again, we get 1:0.5)
AAAaannndd the bot gets it wrong yet again!
b) 12p:£6 = 12p:600p = 1:50
My apologies! You are correct. Thank you for pointing it out.
b) 12p:£6 = 12p:600p = 1:50
a) To convert mm to cm, we divide by 10. Therefore, 10mm is equal to 1cm. So, the ratio 10mm:5cm can be written as 1:5.
b) To convert p to £, we divide by 2. Therefore, 12p is equal to £6. So, the ratio 12p:£6 can be written as 1:£0.5.
