Ratio Formula
Assume that, we have two quantities (or two numbers or two entities) and we have to find the ratio of these two, then the formula for ratio is defined as;
a: b ⇒ a/b
where a and b could be any two quantities.
Here, “a” is called the first term or antecedent, and “b” is called the second term or consequent.
Example: In ratio 4:9, is represented by 4/9, where 4 is antecedent and 9 is consequent.
If we multiply and divide each term of ratio by the same number (non-zero), it doesn’t affect the ratio.
Example: 4:9 = 8:18 = 12:27
