You asked:

Simplify the ratio: \(0.36 : 1.2\)

MathBot Answer:

\(3 : 10\), \(\frac{3}{10}\), \(30\%\)

Begin by converting any decimals to fractions and finding the lowest common denominator (LCD) of the given numbers. \[\frac{9}{25}, \frac{6}{5} \]\[ \operatorname{lcm}(25, 5) = 25\]

Then multiply each of the numbers by the LCD. This will convert all the numbers in the ratio to integers. \[9 : 30\]

Then find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the resulting numbers. \[\operatorname{gcd}(9, 30) = 3\]

And finally divide each number in the ratio by the GCD to get the simplified ratio. \[3 : 10\]
