Question

$\text{What is the ratio of}5\frac{3}{4}\text{years to 65 months?}$

• A. 60:55
• B. 69:65
• C. 65: 69
• D. 72:34

Answer 1

The correct option is B

69:65

$5\frac{3}{4}=\frac{23}{4}\text{years}$

$\frac{23}{4}\text{years}=\frac{23}{4}\times 12\text{months}$
$=69\text{months}$

$\frac{5\frac{3}{4}\text{years}}{65\text{months}}=\frac{69\text{months}}{65\text{months}}=\frac{69}{65}$

$\therefore$ The required ratio is 69: 65.
