About Ratio Formula
When comparing the relationship between two numbers/quantities, we employ the ratio formula. The ratio is a relationship between the quantities of two or more objects that shows how much of one object is contained in the other. The most common way to represent a ratio of two quantities say a and b, is to use
a: b
where,
- a = Antecedent
- b = Consequent
What is the Ratio Formula?
The ratio is a relationship between the amounts of two or more objects that shows how much of one is contained in the other. Using the ratio formula, a ratio can be represented as a fraction. For any 2 quantities, say a and b, the ratio formula is as follows:
a/b = a:b
Since a & b are individual amounts for two quantities, the total quantity combined is given as (a + b).
