Compare the following pair of numbers a and b in three ways. a. find the ratio of a to b. b. find the ratio of b to a. c. complete the sentence: a is percent of b. a=120 and b=340 a. the ratio of a to b is . b. the ratio of b to a is . c. a is nothing percent of b.

a. 6:17

b. 17:6

c. A is 35.29% of B (rounded to 2 decimal place percent)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given A = 120 & B = 340

a.

The ratio of A to B is finding the fraction and reducing it to lowest terms and then writing the answer in "A : B" format. So,

Ratio of A to B is 6:17

b.

The ratio of B to A is just the opposite of what we did in part (a). We divide B by A and reduce the fraction to lowest terms and give the final answer in the form B : A. So,

Ratio of B to A is 17:6

c.

To find the percentage A is of B, we need to divide A by B and then multiply that answer by 100. Hence,

So A is 35.29% of B (rounded to 2 decimal place percent)
