Find the ratio in simplest form.

30: 6

a. 1: 5
b. 4: 1
c. 5: 1

ANSWER

The simplest form of the ratio

is



EXPLANATION

The ratio given to us is


We can divide each term in ratio by the same number.

To find the ratio in the simplest form we divide the terms in the ratio by their highest common factor, which is


This implies that,



We simplify this to obtain,



The correct answer is C.

Alternatively,





This implies that,

30:6this is the same as 30/6and 30/6 reduces to 5/1...and as a ratio, it is 5:1

I’m going to infer you said parallel.solve for yy= -1/2x+7/4lines that are parallel have the same slope, different y intercept.so we know m is -1/2then from there solve for y intercept.
