Ratio examples


Let us find Ratio examples.


A ratio is a relationship between 2 numbers of the same kind i.e., objects, spoonfuls, units of whatever identical dimension, persons, students, usually expressed as "a to b" or a:b, sometimes expressed arithmetically as a dimensionless quotient of the 2, which explicitly indicates how many times the first number contains the second.
The ratio between 2 quantities is 3:7. If first quantity is 15, find the second one.
Let the second quantity be x.
Thus 3:7 = 15:x
Since Product of Extremes = Product of Means
3x = 15*7
=> x = 15/3*7
= 5*7
= 35

In our next blog we shall learn about midpoint theorem I hope the above explanation was useful.Keep reading and leave your comments.
