If p = m × t and q = n × t, then p/q = []/[]

Solution:

Given, p = m × t and q = n × t

We have to find the value of p/q.

p/q = m × t / n × t

Cancelling out common term,

= m/n

Therefore, p/q = m/n

✦ Try This: If p = 5 × 2 and q = 6 × 2, then p/q = []/[]

Given, p = 5 × 2 and q = 6 × 2

We have to find the value of p/q.

p/q = 5 × 2 / 6 ×2

Cancelling out common term,

= 5/6

Therefore, p/q = 5/6
