4/5 of my cake is frosted. My cat licked off 1/7 of the frosting. How much of my frosting is left?

If the cat licked 1/7 of the frosting, it means that 6/7 of the frosting is still there. But only 4/5 of the cake was frosted.

So, the remaining frosted cake is 6/7 of 4/5. In formulas, we have to multiply the fractions:

the ratio of white tiles to blue tiles is 48: 16. the ratio in it's simplest form is 3: 1.

step-by-step explanation:

ratio: take the first number and add a colon next to it, then add the second number after that. make sure the ratio order matches up with the written problem!

simplest form: we can simplify the ratio 48 : 16 by dividing both terms by the greatest common factor (gcf).

the gcf of 48 and 16 is 16.

divide both terms by 16:

48 ÷ 16 = 3

16 ÷ 16 = 1

reducing to simplest form:

48 : 16 = 3 : 1
