Solution

To find the ratio of two quantities, they must be expressed in same units.

Explanation:

For a ratio to be meaningful, both quantities should have the same unit of measurement. For example, if you want to find the ratio of 5 meters to 3 meters, the ratio would be 5 : 3. However, if one is in meters and the other in centimeters, you must convert them to the same unit (e.g., both in meters or both in centimeters) before calculating the ratio.
