Question

Write the ratio of second quantity to first quantity in the reduced form :

5 dozen pens, 120 pens

Answer 1

Given, First quantity = 5 Dozen Pens

= 5 × 12

= 60 Pens

Second quantity = 120 Pens

∴ Ratio = `"Second quantity"/"First quantity"`

= `120/(5 xx 12)`

= `120/60`

= `2/1`

= 2 : 1
