Question

Express the given ratios in its simplest form:

$\left(v\right)$ $10$ paise$:1$ rupee

Answer 1

Step: Express the ratio in simplest form

Since $1$ rupee $=100$ paise,
Therefore,
$10$ paise $:1$ rupee $=\frac{10\text{paise}}{100\text{paise}}$

Above ratio or fraction can be converted to its simplest form by dividing numerator and denominator by their $HCF$ equal to $10$, we get,
$\frac{10}{100}=\frac{10÷10}{100÷10}=\frac{1}{10}$

Hence, the simplest form of the given ratio is $1:10$.
