Answer:
basic ratio is 3:7
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the ratio is 24: 56
To find basic ratio we need to simplify the given ratio
Ratio can be written as fraction from
\(\frac{24}{56}\)
To simplify the fraction we divide top and bottom by a common factor
Divide top and bottom by 2, the fraction becomes
\(\frac{12}{28}\)
Again divide both top and bottom by 2
\(\frac{6}{14}\)
Both 6 and 14 are divisible by 2
\(\frac{3}{7}\)
So basic ratio is 3:7
