You asked:

Simplify the ratio: \(1 : 1.8\)

MathBot Answer:

\(5 : 9\), \(\frac{5}{9}\), \(55.56\%\)

Begin by converting any decimals to fractions and finding the lowest common denominator (LCD) of the given numbers. \[\frac{1}{1}, \frac{9}{5} \]\[ \operatorname{lcm}(1, 5) = 5\]

Then multiply each of the numbers by the LCD. This will convert all the numbers in the ratio to integers. \[5 : 9\]

Then find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the resulting numbers. \[\operatorname{gcd}(5, 9) = 1\]

And finally divide each number in the ratio by the GCD to get the simplified ratio. \[5 : 9\]
