Arrange the following ratios in descending order.
3 : 2‚ 4 : 3 ‚ 5 : 6‚ 1 : 5
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e 3 : 2 > 4 : 3 > 5 : 6 > 1 : 5.
3 : 2 = 3/2 = 1.5
4 : 3 = 4/3 ≈ 1.33
5 : 6 = 5/6 ≈ 0.83
1 : 5 = 1/5 = 0.2
Now arrange in descending order = 3 : 2 > 4 : 3 > 5 : 6 > 1 : 5
