Write each ratio in the simplest form.
Question 1.
\(\frac{6}{15}\) ____________
Answer:
To write a ratio in simplest form, find the greatest factor of the numerator and denominator.
\(\frac{6}{15}=\frac{6 \div 3}{15 \div 3}\) (Divide the numerator and denominator by the GCF)
= \(\frac{2}{5}\)
Question 2.
\(\frac{8}{20}\) ____________
Answer:
To write a ratio in simplest form, find the greatest factor of the numerator and denominator.
\(\frac{8}{20}=\frac{8 \div 4}{20 \div 4}\) (Divide the numerator and denominator by the GCF)
= \(\frac{2}{5}\)
Question 3.
\(\frac{30}{18}\) ____________
Answer:
To write a ratio in simplest form, find the greatest factor of the numerator and denominator.
\(\frac{30}{18}=\frac{30 \div 6}{18 \div 6}\) (Divide the numerator and denominator by the GCF)
= \(\frac{5}{3}\)
Question 4.
\(\frac{36}{30}\) ____________
Answer:
To write a ratio in simplest form, find the greatest factor of the numerator and denominator.
\(\frac{36}{30}=\frac{36 \div 6}{30 \div 6}\) (Divide the numerator and denominator by the GCF)
= \(\frac{6}{5}\)
Find the perimeter.
Question 5.
square with sides of 8.9 cm
Answer:
side = 8.9 cm
We know that,
Perimeter of the square = 4s
P = 4 × 8.9
P = 35.6 cm
Thus the perimeter of the square = 35.6 cm
Question 6.
rectangle with length 5\(\frac{1}{2}\) ft and width 2\(\frac{3}{4}\) ft
Answer:
Given,
length 5\(\frac{1}{2}\) ft and width 2\(\frac{3}{4}\) ft
We know that,
Perimeter of the rectangle = 2L + 2W
P = 2 (5\(\frac{1}{2}\) + 2\(\frac{3}{4}\))
P = 2 (\(\frac{11}{2}\) + \(\frac{11}{4}\))
P = 2 (\(\frac{33}{4}\)
P = 33/2
P = 16 \(\frac{1}{2}\)
Thus the perimeter of the rectangle is 16 \(\frac{1}{2}\) ft
Question 7.
equilateral triangle with sides of 8\(\frac{3}{8}\) in.
Answer:
Given,
s = 8\(\frac{3}{8}\) in or 8.3
We know that,
Perimeter of the equilateral triangle = 3a
P = 3 × 8.3
P = 24.9 ft
Thus the perimeter of the equilateral triangle is 24.9 ft
Find the area.
Question 8.
Square with sides of 6.5 cm: ___________
Answer:
Given,
side = 6.5 cm
We know that,
Area of a square = s × s
A = 6.5 × 6.5
A = 42.25 sq. cm
Thus the area of the square is 42.25 sq. cm
Question 9.
Triangle with base 10 in. and height 6 in.:
Answer:
Given,
Triangle with base 10 in. and height 6 in
We know that,
Area of triangle = 1/2 × base × height
A = 1/2 × 10 × 6
A = 5 × 6
A = 30 sq. inches
Question 10.
Rectangle with length 3\(\frac{1}{2}\) ft and width 2\(\frac{1}{2}\) ft:
Answer:
Given,
length 3\(\frac{1}{2}\) ft and width 2\(\frac{1}{2}\) ft
We know that,
Area of the rectangle = l × w
A = 3\(\frac{1}{2}\) × 2\(\frac{1}{2}\)
A = \(\frac{7}{2}\) × \(\frac{5}{2}\)
A = \(\frac{35}{4}\)
Thus the area of the rectangle is \(\frac{35}{4}\) sq. ft
