In our day-to-day life, we use the ratio in various ways.
 
Now, we will learn how the ratio helps us to solve our real-life situations.
 
When two numbers are in the ratio of a:b, they can be represented as ax and bx.
 
Because whatever the value we substitute as x in the expression which will be equal to the original form.
 
That is,
 
ax:bx=a:baxbx=abWherex0
 
Consider a ratio of two number 9:14. Which can also be written as 9x:14x.
 
9x:14x=9:149x14x=914Ifx=1,then914=914
 
We will see some application-oriented problems on ratios to understand this concept clearly.
