Write the ratio 30 feet to 60 feet as a fraction in simplest form

To begin, we start with the given ratio:

30 feet: 60 feet

Ratios can also be written as fractions, with the first part of the ratio becoming the numerator and the second part of the ratio becoming the denominator, as follows:

30 feet/60 feet

When we do this division, the units actually cancel because the same units (feet) are in both the numerator and the denominator, leaving us with:

30/60

To simplify this fraction now, we must divide both the numerator and denominator by the greatest common factor (GCF) of the two numbers, which is 30.

30/30 / 60/30, which when we simplify, gives us:

1/2

Therefore, your answer is 1/2.

Hope this helps!
