unsimplified ratio of circles to triangles:
just count them all
3:12
answer attempt 2 out of 2
for every 1 circle there are triangles, therefore the simplified ratio of circles to triangles is :.
Step1: Simplify the ratio
Given the ratio \(3:12\).
We know that to simplify a ratio \(a:b\), we divide both \(a\) and \(b\) by their greatest - common divisor. The greatest - common divisor of \(3\) and \(12\) is \(3\).
