Owen is going to take a job and live in Atlanta for 5 years. A relator shows him home A that is $250,000.00. the relator tells him the property in this area is increasing at a
rate of 3.5% per year. A second home B is listed for $300,000.00. The homes in that
area are increasing at a rate of 2% per year. In five years which home will be the most
expensive and by how much?

the ratio of white tiles to blue tiles is 48: 16. the ratio in it's simplest form is 3: 1.

step-by-step explanation:

ratio: take the first number and add a colon next to it, then add the second number after that. make sure the ratio order matches up with the written problem!

simplest form: we can simplify the ratio 48 : 16 by dividing both terms by the greatest common factor (gcf).

the gcf of 48 and 16 is 16.

divide both terms by 16:

48 ÷ 16 = 3

16 ÷ 16 = 1

reducing to simplest form:

48 : 16 = 3 : 1
