1.	State whether the given statement are true (T) or false (F).27cm2 : 57cm2 = 18cm : 38cm
Answer» True Consider the two ratios 27cm² : 57cm² = 18cm : 38cm 27/57 = 18/38 27/57 is further simplified by dividing both numerator and denominator by 3 we get, = 9/19 18/38 is further simplified by dividing both numerator and denominator by 2 we get, = 9/19 Hence, 9/19 = 9/19 Therefore, 27cm² : 57cm² = 18cm : 38cm

State whether the given statement are true (T) or false (F).27cm2 : 57cm2 = 18cm : 38cm

Answer»

True

Consider the two ratios 27cm² : 57cm² = 18cm : 38cm

27/57 = 18/38

27/57 is further simplified by dividing both numerator and denominator by 3 we get,

= 9/19

18/38 is further simplified by dividing both numerator and denominator by 2 we get,

= 9/19

Hence, 9/19 = 9/19

Therefore, 27cm² : 57cm² = 18cm : 38cm
