I suggest we simply form the ratio ...
13200 : 16404
= 1100 : 1367
My challenging question is:
What ratio, with neither term more than 3 digits, comes closest to 1100:1367 ?
1)The Arthur Ravenel Jr. Bridge is the longest cable-stayed bridge in the United States. The bridge has a total length of 13200 feet.
Each year, the Cooper River Bridge 5K Run is held in the Spring. If there are approximately 16404 feet in 5 kilometers, what is the ratio of the portion of the race that takes place on the bridge to the entire race. The ratio of the race on the bridge to off the bridge is ?

i have tried everything, and I honestly don't know
could you help me out here, please?

I gave you the answer to the first part.
For the second part:
distance on the bridge = 13200 ft (that was given)
distance off the bridge = 16404 - 13200
Now just form the ratio and reduce it.
let me know what you get.
(the last part was just my add-on question and you really didn't have to worry about it)
