Tamar travels 8/9 miles to the grocery store. Melkon travels 10 miles to the grocery store. Write the ratio of the distance Melkon travels to the distance Tamar travels as a fraction in simplest form. Write the ratio of the distance Tamar travels to the distance Melkon travels as a fraction in simplest form. PLZ I NEED URGENT HELP I NEED THE ANSWER

Respuesta :

[tex]\frac{\text{Distance of melkon}}{\text{Distance of tamar}} = \frac{45}{4}\\\\\frac{\text{Distance of tamar}}{\text{Distance of melkon}} = \frac{4}{45}[/tex]

Solution:

Given that,

Tamar travels 8/9 miles to the grocery store

Melkon travels 10 miles to the grocery store

Therefore,

[tex]Tamar = \frac{8}{9}\ miles\\\\Melkon = 10\ miles[/tex]

Write the ratio of the distance Melkon travels to the distance Tamar travels

[tex]\text{ Distance of melkon : Distance of tamar } = 10 : \frac{8}{9}\\\\\text{ Distance of melkon : Distance of tamar } = \frac{10 \times 9}{1 \times 9} : \frac{8}{9}\\\\\text{ Distance of melkon : Distance of tamar } = \frac{90}{9} : \frac{8}{9}\\\\\text{ Distance of melkon : Distance of tamar } =90 : 8\\\\In\ fraction\ form\\\\\frac{\text{Distance of melkon}}{\text{Distance of tamar}} = \frac{90}{8}\\\\In\ simplest\ form\\\\\frac{\text{Distance of melkon}}{\text{Distance of tamar}} = \frac{45}{4}[/tex]

Write the ratio of the distance Tamar travels to the distance Melkon travels

[tex]\text{ Distance of tamar : Distance of melkon } = \frac{8}{9} : 10\\\\\text{ Distance of tamar : Distance of melkon } = \frac{8}{9} : \frac{10 \times 9}{1 \times 9}\\\\\text{ Distance of tamar : Distance of melkon } = \frac{8}{9} : \frac{90}{9}\\\\\text{ Distance of tamar : Distance of melkon } = 8 : 90\\\\In\ fraction\ form\\\\\frac{\text{Distance of tamar}}{\text{distance of melkon}} = \frac{8}{90}\\\\\frac{\text{Distance of tamar}}{\text{distance of melkon}} = \frac{4}{45}[/tex]

Thus the required are found
