Akeem measured the capacity of a glass as
270 mL.and the capacity of a Thermos® as
1L. He said that the ratio 270:1 compares
the capacity of the glass with the capacity
of the Thermos®. Is his reasoning correct?
Explain.

Answer:

No, the reasoning is not correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. To get the correct answer, Akeem should first translate 1L into mL.

    1L = 1000mL.

2. We now have the numbers 270mL and 1000mL. (Note: Even though 270 and 1000 aren't equal, we can go with the question.)

3. 270/1000 is how we describe the ratio before it's simplified.

4. Simplify.

    270/1000 → divide 10 from both sides to start simplifying. → 27/100

    We can't simplify anymore without going into decimals.

5. The correct answer would be 27:100.

The reasoning isn't correct.
