Questions

How do I simplify a ratio?

Divide both terms by their highest common factor (HCF). For example 12 : 18 — the HCF is 6, so the ratio becomes 2 : 3.

How do I find the missing term in a proportion?

If A : B = C : D, then D = B × C ÷ A. For 2 : 3 = 10 : ?, the answer is 3 × 10 ÷ 2 = 15.

How do I divide money in a ratio?

Add the parts, then share the total in that proportion. ₹1,000 in the ratio 2 : 3 gives ₹1,000 × 2/5 = ₹400 and ₹1,000 × 3/5 = ₹600.
