You asked:

Simplify the ratio: \(4.3 : 5.8\)

MathBot Answer:

\(43 : 58\), \(\frac{43}{58}\), \(74.14\%\)

Begin by converting any decimals to fractions and finding the lowest common denominator (LCD) of the given numbers. \[\frac{43}{10}, \frac{29}{5} \]\[ \operatorname{lcm}(10, 5) = 10\]

Then multiply each of the numbers by the LCD. This will convert all the numbers in the ratio to integers. \[43 : 58\]

Then find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the resulting numbers. \[\operatorname{gcd}(43, 58) = 1\]

And finally divide each number in the ratio by the GCD to get the simplified ratio. \[43 : 58\]
