There are 20 squid and 36 eels in a fish tank. What is the ratio of squids to eels? What is the rate of squids to eels? What about the simplified ratio and unit rate?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Ratio: 20:36

Rate: 20 squids per 36 eels

Simplified ratio:

[tex] = \frac{20}{36 } = \frac{10}{18} = \frac{5}{9} [/tex]

Unit ratio:

20/36 squids per eel (dividing by 36)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of squid in the tank = [tex]20[/tex]

Number of eels in the tank = [tex]36[/tex]

Rate of squids to eels will be obtained by creating a fraction of number of squids over number of eels

Rate of squid to eels = [tex]\frac{20}{36}[/tex]

also ratio of squid to eels will be written as [tex]20:36[/tex]

Simplified ratio = [tex]\frac{20}{36} = \frac{5}{9} = 5:9[/tex]

Unit rate will be defined as number of squid per eels

Unit rate = [tex]\frac{20}{36} = 0.55[/tex]
