The ratio, using whole numbers of the length to the width is [tex]\frac{26}{15}[/tex]
Given the following data:
- Length of a rectangle = [tex]6\frac{1}{2}[/tex] inches.
- Width of a rectangle = [tex]3\frac{3}{4}[/tex] inches.
To calculate the ratio, using whole numbers of the length to the width:
What is ratio?
Ratio can be defined as a mathematical expression that is used to denote the proportion of two (2) or more quantities with respect to one another.
How to calculate the ratio.
First of all, we would convert the mixed fraction to a proper fraction as follows:
For the length:
[tex]6\frac{1}{2}=\frac{13}{2}[/tex]
For the width:
[tex]3\frac{3}{4}=\frac{15}{4}[/tex]
Now, we can calculate the ratio, using whole numbers of the length to the width:
[tex]Ratio = \frac{length}{width} \\\\Ratio = \frac{\frac{13}{2} }{\frac{15}{4} } \\\\Ratio = \frac{13}{2} \times \frac{4}{15} \\\\Ratio =\frac{26}{15}[/tex]
