Answer 2

The notation you've provided appears to represent two ratios:

1. 373800:600
2. 285500:500

In a ratio, the numbers on the left and right side of the colon (:) represent two quantities being compared. The general form of a ratio is "a:b" where "a" and "b" are non-negative numbers.

To simplify each ratio, you can divide both numbers by their greatest common divisor (GCD) to get the simplest form of the ratio.

1. 373800:600 The GCD of 373800 and 600 is 600. Dividing both numbers by 600: 373800 ÷ 600 = 623 600 ÷ 600 = 1 So the simplest form of the first ratio is 623:1.

2. 285500:500 The GCD of 285500 and 500 is 500. Dividing both numbers by 500: 285500 ÷ 500 = 571 500 ÷ 500 = 1 So the simplest form of the second ratio is 571:1.

Therefore, the simplified ratios are:

1. 623:1
2. 571:1
