Between 1899 and 1900,284 out of 1,00 people in the United states were 5-17 years old. i need to write the ratio in three ways

Sagot :

The ratio of 284 out of 1000 can be written as,

By dividing both terms by common factor 2, it can also be written as,

[tex]142\colon500[/tex]

Again by dividing both terms by common factor 2, the ratio becomes,
