To compare the profit to revenue as a fraction in lowest terms, we need to find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the profit and the revenue and then divide both numbers by the GCD.
The profit reported is approximately $2,700 million dollars, and the revenue reported is approximately $48,900 million dollars.
To find the GCD, we can simplify both numbers by dividing them by a common factor until no further simplification is possible. Let's find the GCD of 2,700 and 48,900:
GCD(2,700, 48,900) = 300
Now, let's divide both the profit and the revenue by the GCD of 300:
Profit / GCD = 2,700 / 300 = 9
Revenue / GCD = 48,900 / 300 = 163
Therefore, the profit to revenue ratio can be expressed as the fraction 9/163 in its lowest terms.
