SOLUTION: Compare the ratio of the longest side 10 1/2 to the shortest side 4 3/4.
I get 21/2 x 19/4 = 399/8
or
21/2 divided by 19/4 change to 21/2 x 4/19 = (Simplify/2 & 4) 21/1 x

Question 1049667: Compare the ratio of the longest side 10 1/2 to the shortest side 4 3/4.
I get 21/2 x 19/4 = 399/8
or
21/2 divided by 19/4 change to 21/2 x 4/19 = (Simplify/2 & 4) 21/1 x 2/19 = 42/19
Would the ratio be 399/8 or 42/19 or am I completely off altogether? Answer by advanced_Learner(501) (Show Source):
