Which of the following ratio is smallest?

Correct option is A

Given: 

Which of the following ratio is smallest? 

11:60

29:42

17:33

19:36 

Solution:

To determine which ratio is the smallest, let's first simplify each ratio to its decimal form:

1. 11:60

​$$\frac{11}{60} = 0.1833$$ 

2. 29:42

​$$\frac{29}{42} = 0.6905$$​​

3. 17:33

​$$\frac{17}{33} = 0.5152$$​​

4. 19:36

​$$\frac{19}{36} = 0.5278$$ 

From the decimal values, we can see that the smallest ratio is 11:60, which is approximately 0.1833.
