Question 24

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

12 h : 30 h = 8 km : 20 km

Answer 1

Given, 12 h : 30 h = 8 km : 20 km
$\Rightarrow \frac{12}{30}=\frac{8}{20}$
Simplest form of $\frac{12}{30}=\frac{2}{5}$ [on dividing numerator and denominator by 6]
Simplest form of $\frac{8}{20}=\frac{2}{5}$ [on dividing numerator and denominator by 4]
Simplest form of both the ratios are equal as $\frac{2}{5}=\frac{2}{5}$.

Hence, the given statement is true.
