Write each ratio statement as a fraction and reduce to lowest terms if possible: 18 to 24 =
5 to 15 =
14:42 =
15 cents to 18 cents =

The answers are:

18 to 24 =  

5 to 15 =  

14:42 =  

15 cents to 18 cents =

Explanation:

To write a fraction using a ratio, simply use the first number as the numerator (top number), in this case, the numbers 18, 5, 14, and 15, and the second or biggest number as a denominator (bottom number), in this case, the numbers 24, 15, 42 and 18. This means the fractions are  ,  , , and  .

The second step is to reduce or simplify the fractions, which means the numbers in a fraction are divided by the same factor (a number that divides another without a remainder). Additionally, to do this, it is important to reduce the fraction to its minimum.

divide this by 6, which is equivalent to

divide this by 5, which is equivalent to

divide this by 14. which is equivalent to
