Given:
The ratio is:
1.5 kg : 350 g
To find:
The lowest or simplest form of the given ratio.
Solution:
We know that,
1 kg = 1000 g
We have,
1.5 kg : 350 g
It can be written as
[tex]1.5\ kg : 350\ g=\dfrac{1.5\ kg}{350\ g}[/tex]
[tex]1.5\ kg : 350\ g=\dfrac{1.5\times 1000\ g}{350\ g}[/tex]
[tex]1.5\ kg : 350\ g=\dfrac{1500\ g}{350\ g}[/tex]
[tex]1.5\ kg : 350\ g=\dfrac{150}{35}[/tex]
[tex]1.5\ kg : 350\ g=\dfrac{30}{7}[/tex]
Therefore, the lowest form of the given ratio is 30:7.
