Step-by-step explanation:
So 4:5:8
= 1:n:b
which means that 4/n= 1
n= 1x4 so n=4
Now we know that 4 is divided by 4 to get 1, so we do the same for the other two values.
5/4= 1.25 and 8/4= 2
So now place the values for n:b
n= 1.25 b=2
So n:b= 1.25:2
To check, multiply each of the values in 1:1.25:2 by 4 and see if the answer you get is the same as 4:5:8.
