Question

In a year$,$ Seema earns $₹1,50,000$ and saves $₹50,000$ find the ratio of $:$

money she earns to the money she saves$.$

Answer 1

Step $1:$ To find the ratio of money Seema earns to the money she saves$.$

Given money she earns $=$$₹1,50,000$

money she saves $=$$₹50,000$

Step $2:$ Now find the ratio

Required Ratio $=$$₹1,50,000$ $:$ $₹50,000$

Step $3:$ Convert ratio into fraction and write it into simplest form

$₹1,50,000$$:$$₹50,000$ can be written as

$=$$\frac{1,50,000}{50,000}$$,$divide the numerator and denominator by $10,000$

$=\frac{1,50,000/10,000}{50,000/10,000}$

$=\frac{15}{5}$

$=\frac{3}{1}$

Hence, the ratio of money she earns to the money she saves is $3:1$
