the ration of two numbers is 2:3. If the bigger number is 9, what is the smaller number


Sagot :

Answer:

  • The smaller number is 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

The bigger number which is 9 resembles the 3 in the ratio because it is more bigger than 2.

Each '1' in the ratio represent a value of 3 because 9/3 = 3.

Multiplying 3 to 2 will give 6 so the smaller number would be 6.
