The back wheel of a bicycle rotates 1 1/6 times with 1 1/4 rotations of the pedals. Write the ratio of back wheel rotations to pedal rotations in simplest form.

Respuesta :

The ratio of back wheel rotations to pedal rotations in simplest form is 14/ 15

How to determine the ratio

it is important to note that ratio also explains  quotient between two values of objects

We have that:

  • Back wheel rotation is 1 1/ 6 = 7/6
  • Pedals rotation is 1 1/4 = 5/ 4

The ratio back wheel rotations to pedal rotations is given as

= back wheel rotation/ pedals rotation

= 7/ 6 ÷ 5/ 4

Take inverse of the divisor and multiply

= 7/ 6 × 4/ 5

= 28/ 30

Find common factor

= 14/ 15

Thus, the ratio of back wheel rotations to pedal rotations in simplest form is 14/ 15
