Answer: 1/70
1 goes in the green space
70 goes in the gray space
==============================================
Explanation:
There are 5 gold and 350 total. That forms the fraction 5/350 which fully reduces to 1/70 after you divide both parts by the GCF = 5
A = 5, B = 350
- A/GCF = 5/5 = 1 in the numerator of the final answer
- B/GCF = 350/5 = 70 in the denominator of the final answer
The fraction 1/70 can be thought of like saying "There's 1 gold coins in 70 coins total" or "there's 1 gold coin for every 70 coins".
Then we could scale up like so
- 1 gold : 70 total
- 2 gold : 140 total
- 3 gold : 210 total
- 4 gold : 280 total
- 5 gold : 350 total
