Question

Ratio has

  1. Different units
  2. No units
  3. Has units
  4. Has the same units

hintHint:

The ratio is defined as the comparison of two quantities of the same units that indicates how much of one quantity is present in the other quantity. Ratios can be classified into two types. One is part to part ratio and the other is part to whole ratio. The part-to-part ratio denotes how two distinct entities or groups are related. For example, the ratio of boys to girls in a class is 12: 15, whereas, the part-to-whole ratio denotes the relationship between a specific group to a whole. For example, out of every 10 people, 5 of them like to read books. Therefore, the part to the whole ratio is 5: 10, which means every 5 people from 10 people like to read books.

The correct answer is: No units


    Ratios are unitless, as in the case they relate quantities in units of the same dimension, even if their units of measurement are initially different.
    For example, the ratio 1 minute : 40 seconds can be reduced by changing the first value to 60 seconds, so the ratio becomes 60 seconds : 40 seconds.
