Question

Write each of the following ratios in the simplest form:
$1L35mL:270mL$

Answer 1

As we know that,

$1L=1000ml$

So,

$1L35ml=1000ml+35ml$

$=1035ml$

Now,

$\begin{array}{cc}\frac{1L35ml}{270ml}& =\frac{1035ml}{270ml}\\ & =\frac{3\times 3\times 5\times 23}{2\times 3\times 3\times 3\times 5}\\ & =\frac{23}{2\times 3}\\ & =\frac{23}{6}\\ & =23:6\end{array}$
