What is Ratio?

Answers (1)

best_answer

A ratio is a comparison of the sizes of two or more quantites of the same kind by division.

If a and b are two quantities of the same kind (in same units),then the fraction fracab is called the ratio of a to b. Thus the ratio of a to b=fracab. It is written as a:b.


The quantites a and b are called the terms of the ratio, a is called the first term(or antecedent) and b is called the second term(or consequent).
