In the ratio a:b ,we say that a is the first
term
or antecedent and b is second term or
consequent
Ratio exist
between quantities of the same
kind.

To find the ratio
between two quantities, we
need to ensure that they are
expressed in the same units.



Ratio, being a
fraction, has no unit .

A ratio does not alter if
its first and second terms are multiplied or
divided by the same non zero number.

If the terms of a ratio are fractions then using
the above property, we may a convert them
into natural by multiplying each term by the
L.C.M of there denominators.

A ratio a:b is said to be in simplest form if the
H.C.F of a and b is 1
