Find the reduced form of the ratio of the first quantity to second quantity.

i. 700 Rs, 308Rs.


ii. 14Rs, 12 Rs.40 paise.


iii. 5 litre, 2500 ml


iv. 3 years 4 months, 5 years 8 months


v. 3.8 kg, 1900 gm


vi. 7 minutes 20 seconds, 5minutes 6 seconds.

(i) Reduced form of the ratio of 700Rs and 308Rs is:



(Break the expression in order to simplify it further)



(ii) Reduced form of the ratio of 14Rs and 12.40Rs is:



Multiply denominator and numerator by 100:



Divide numerator and denominator by 10:




(Break the expression in order to simplify it further)



(iii) 5 litre = 5000 ml


Reduced form of the ratio of 5000 ml and 2500 ml is:



(Break the expression in order to simplify it further)



(iv) 3 years = 3 × 12 = 36 months


3 years 4 months = 40 months


5 years = 5 × 12 = 60


5 years 8 months = 68 months


Reduced form of the ratio of 40 months and 68 months is:



(Break the expression in order to simplify it further)



(v) 3.8 kg = 3.8 × 1000 = 3800 gm


Reduced form of the ratio of 3800 gm and 1900 gm is:



(Break the expression in order to simplify it further)



(vi) 7 minutes = 7 × 60 = 420 seconds


7 minutes 20 seconds = 440 seconds


5minutes = 5 × 60 = 300 seconds


5 minutes 6 seconds = 306 seconds


Reduced form of the ratio of 440 seconds and 306 seconds is:



(Break the expression in order to simplify it further)
