Question

Find the ratio of $10\mathrm{litres}$ to $0.56\mathrm{liters}$

Answer 1

Given:

$10\mathrm{liters}$ to $0.56\mathrm{liters}$

Two quantities are in the same units.

$10\mathrm{liters}$ to $0.56\mathrm{liters}$$=$$\frac{10\mathrm{liters}}{0.56\mathrm{liters}}\left[\mathrm{Note}:\mathrm{HCF}(1000,56)=8\right]$

$$\begin{gathered} =\frac{1000}{56} \\ =\frac{125}{7} \\ =125˸7 \end{gathered}$$

Hence, the ratio of $10\mathrm{liters}$ to $0.56\mathrm{liters}$ is $125˸7$
