In the first one, MULTIPLY BOTH FRACTIONS BY THE COMMON DENOMINATOR (24) to get
16:21 THEN divide them both by the first term to get your required form
1:21/16 or 1:1.3125 (decimal form)
In the SECOND ONE, MULTIPLY BOTH BY 100 to get rid of the decimals. This gives
65:25 Divide both by 5 to reduce
13:5 Then, divide both by 13 to get your form
1:5/13.
I really enjoy working with decimals, but many do not. Have a great holiday season!

Express the following ratios in the form 1/( n - 1)⅔ :
1) ⅞ and 2) 0.65/ 0.25?
1) 7/8 = 1/(n-1)^(2/3)
7(n-1)^(2/3) = 8
(n-1)^(2/3) = 8/7
n-1 = (8/7)^(3/2)
Substitute the above in the original equation to get:
7/8 = 1/[(8/7)^3/2]^(2/3)
2) .65/.85 = 1/(n-1)^(2/3)
.85 = .65(n-1)^(2/3)
.85/.65= (n-1) ^(2/3)
(.85/.65)^(3/2) = n-1
Substitute the above in the original equation to get:
.65/.85 = 1/[(.65/.85)]^(2/3)

multiply the first by 3/2 to get 1: 21/16
Do the second as fractions to avoid a nasty nonrepeating decimal
13/20 : 1/4
multiple by 20/13 to get 20/52 = 5/13, or 1:5/13

loved it heres a million for you all!__XThere were 3 toddlers in a woman's womb, and they were discussing what they could opt for to be even as they were out interior the international and grown up. the first one suggested "I wanna be a plumber." The others laughed at this, and requested why he needed be be a plumber. He replied, "So i am going to restoration the pipes in right here, this is kinda leaky." the 2d one suggested "I wanna be an electrician." The others concept this replaced into type of stupid too and requested why. the 2d toddler replied, "so i am going to get some lighting fixtures in right here, its darkish!" The third one suggested, "I wanna be a boxer." The others concept this replaced into hilarious, and laughed for an entire 5 minutes, previously asking, "Why in God's call do you opt for to be a boxer?" He replied, "So," he suggested proudly, "i am going to conquer the hell out of that bald guy who keeps coming in right here and spitting on us.
