The given ratio is 48:4. To find the missing number in the ratio, we need to determine the value that makes the ratio equivalent.
To find the equivalent ratio, we need to divide both numbers in the given ratio by the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the two numbers.
The GCD of 48 and 4 is 4.
So, when we divide both numbers by 4, we get the equivalent ratio: (48/4):(4/4) = 12:1.
Therefore, the missing number in the ratio 12:_ is 1.
