Question
The ratio of 150 cm to 1metre is 1:1.5.
Options
True
False
Solution
This statement is False.
Explanation:
The ratio of 150 cm to 1 metre = 150 cm : 1 metre = 150 cm : 100 cm
= 150 cm : 1 metre = 150 cm : 100 cm
= `150/100 = 3/2` = 3 : 2
And 1 : 1.5 = `1/1.5 = 10/15 = 2/3` = 2 : 3
Since, 3 : 2 ≠ 2 : 3
∴ 150 cm : 1 metre ≠ 1 : 1.5
