Question

Find the ratio of the following and write in the lowest form.

$150cm$ to $1.5m$

Answer 1

converting $m$ to $cm$

$$\begin{gathered} 1.5m=1.5\times 100 \\ =150cm \end{gathered}$$ $\left[1m=100cm\right]$

Ratio $=150:150$

$$\begin{gathered} =\frac{\cancel{150}}{\cancel{150}} \\ =\frac{1}{1} \end{gathered}$$

$=1:1$

Hence, the ratio of the given question is $150:150$ and the lowest form is $1:1$
