95p to £3.00 into a simplified ratio

The simplified ratio you are looking for is 19:60

Step-by-step explanation:

Note:

The symbol "p" stands for "pence" which is a subdivision of pound sterling.

£1 = 100p

Recall that:

Ratio of two numbers must be of the same unit of measurement

Ratio cannot be in fraction or decimal

Ratio, when presented as the answer,  must be in its simplest form.

Convert both of the numbers to the same unit of measurement. Since we are trying to avoid decimal, we shall convert both numbers to pence, which is the smaller form of units of both.

95p = 95p

£3.00 = 300p

Form the ratio:

Ratio = 95p : 300p

Ratio = 95 : 300

Simplify the ratio by dividing both sides by 5:

Ratio = 95 ÷ 5 : 300 : 5

Ratio  = 19 : 60

The ratio is 19 : 60
