1. What is the ratio of 10 notebooks to 5 ballpens in simplest form?​

Sagot :

Answer:

2:1  or  2

Step-by-step explanation:

*** (Ratios can be written as " a : b", or can be written as a fraction " a / b".

 >> therefore 10/5 can be simplified to 2/1 )***

    For every 10 notebooks, there are 5 ballpens.

    Therefore, for every 2 notebooks there is 1 ballpen (The simplification).

EXTRA:  

**Also remember that the ratio of notebooks to ballpens cannot be reversed into ballpen to notebook ratio, because this would change the meaning.

  2/1 is not the same as 1/2 **
