You asked:

Simplify the ratio: \(8.03 : 0.5\)

MathBot Answer:

\(803 : 50\), \(\frac{803}{50}\), \(1606\%\)

Begin by converting any decimals to fractions and finding the lowest common denominator (LCD) of the given numbers. \[\frac{803}{100}, \frac{1}{2} \]\[ \operatorname{lcm}(100, 2) = 100\]

Then multiply each of the numbers by the LCD. This will convert all the numbers in the ratio to integers. \[803 : 50\]

Then find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the resulting numbers. \[\operatorname{gcd}(803, 50) = 1\]

And finally divide each number in the ratio by the GCD to get the simplified ratio. \[803 : 50\]
