wheelchair ramp requires a minimum 1:12 ratio of height to length, meaning a ramp with a height of 2.2 feet requires a length of 26.4 feet. Use a proportion to describe the relationship between the required height-to-length ratio and the ramp’s height-to-length ratio. Write the proportion in fraction form without reducing it to the lowest terms. (1 point)

Question

Answer 1

The proportion in fraction form is:

(height of wheelchair ramp) : (length of wheelchair ramp) = (required height-to-length ratio) : (1)

(height of wheelchair ramp) / (length of wheelchair ramp) = (required height-to-length ratio) / (1)

So, the proportion is (height of wheelchair ramp) / (length of wheelchair ramp) = (required height-to-length ratio) / (1)
