Write the rate as a fraction in lowest terms.

Question

4 persons for 32 dresses

Answer 1

To write the rate as a fraction, we can set up a ratio of the number of persons to the number of dresses.

The rate is 4 persons to 32 dresses, which can be written as:

4 persons / 32 dresses.

To simplify the fraction to lowest terms, we can divide both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor (GCD). The GCD of 4 and 32 is 4.

Dividing 4 and 32 by the GCD of 4, we get:

4 / 32 = 1 / 8.

So, the rate of 4 persons for 32 dresses as a fraction in lowest terms is 1/8.
