Question 26

State whether the given statements are true (T) or false (F).

The ratio of 150 cm to 1 m is 1 : 15

Answer 1

Ratio of 150 cm to 1 m
= $\frac{150cm}{1m}=\frac{150cm}{100cm}[\because 1m=100cm]$
= $\frac{3}{2}$ [on dividing numerator and denominator by 50]
= 3 : 2

Hence, the given statement is false.
