2,5 m to 75 cm as ratio in its simplest form

10 : 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert one of the measurements so that it is in the same form as the other.  (Easiest to convert m to cms so we are not working with decimals)

2.5 m = 2.5 x 100 = 250 cm (since there are 100 cm in a meter)

Therefore, as a ratio:

250 : 75

We can divide both by 5:

50 : 15

We can further divide by 5:

10 : 3

(no further simplifying)

So 2.5 m to 75cm as a ratio is 10 : 3

256π units²   (answer b)

step-by-step explanation:

the formula for the surface area of a sphere of radius r

is             a = 4πr²

and so, if r = 8 units, then the surface area is:

a = 4π(8 units)² = 256π units²   (answer b)

what i would say the best answer is a. 40.5
