$\"18cm%3A8m+=18cm%2F8m\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "to simplify this ratio, convert either $\"cm\"$ to $\"m\"$ , or $\"m\"$ to $\"cm\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"1m=100cm\"$ or $\"1cm=0.01m\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "so,\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"18cm%2F8m\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"18cm%2F800cm\"$ ...divide both numerator and denominator by $\"2\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"cross%2818%299cm%2Fcross%28800%29400cm\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( " $\"9cm%2F400cm\"$ \r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "OR if you take $\"1cm=0.01m\"$ , you will have\r
