The triplicate ratio of $ab^{\frac {2}{3}} : a^{\frac {2}{3}}b$ is _____

  1. $1 : 1$

  2. $ab : 1$

  3. $a^{3}b^{2} : a^{2}b^{3}$

  4. $a : b$

D Correct answer
Explanation

The triplicate ratio of $ab^{\frac {2}{3}} : a^{\frac {2}{3}} b$ is $(ab^{\frac {2}{3}})^{3} : (a^{\frac {2}{3}}b)^{3}$
$= a^{3} \cdot b^{2} : a^{2}b^{3}$
$a^{3}b^{2} : a^{2}b^{3} = \dfrac {a^{3}b^{2}}{a^{2}b^{3}} = \dfrac {a}{b}$

______ is the triplicate ratio of $\dfrac {x}{2} : \sqrt [3]{x}$

  1. $\dfrac {x^{3}}{8} : x^{3}$

  2. $8 : x$

  3. $x^{3} : 8$

  4. $x^{2} : 8$

D Correct answer
Explanation

The triplicate ratio of $a : b$ is $a^{3} : b^{3}$
$\therefore$ The triplicate ratio of $\dfrac {x}{2} : \sqrt [3]{x}$ is $\left (\dfrac {x}{2}\right )^{3} : \left (\sqrt [3]{x}\right )^{3} = \dfrac {x^{3}}{8} : x = \dfrac {x^{2}}{8}$
$\therefore x^{2} : 8$.

The subtriplicate ratio of $125y^{3} : 1000z^{6}$ is ____

  1. $5y : 10z^{3}$

  2. $5y : 10z^{2}$

  3. $1000z^{6} : 125y^{3}$

  4. $10^{3} : 5y$

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

The subtriplicate ratio of $a : b$ is $\sqrt [3]{a} : \sqrt [3]{b}$.
$\therefore$ The subtriplicate ratio of $125y^{3} : 1000z^{6}$ is $\sqrt [3]{125y^{3}} : \sqrt [3]{1000z^{6}} = 5y : 10z^{2}$.

The subtriplicate ratio of $64m^{6} : 27n^{3}$ is ____

  1. $27n^{3} : 64 m^{6}$

  2. $4m : 3n$

  3. $4m^{2} : 3n$

  4. $4m^{3} : 3n$

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

The subtriplicate ratio of $a : b$ is $\sqrt [3]{a} : \sqrt [3]{b}$
$\therefore$ The subtriplicate ratio of $64 m^{6} : 27 n^{3}$ is $\sqrt [3]{64m^{6}} : \sqrt [3]{27n^{3}}$
$= 4m^{2} : 3n$

_____ is the sub-duplicate ratio of $\dfrac {1}{46} : \dfrac {1}{36}$

  1. $\dfrac {1}{4} : \dfrac {1}{6}$

  2. $\dfrac {1}{2} : \dfrac {1}{6}$

  3. $\dfrac {1}{6} : \dfrac {1}{2}$

  4. $\dfrac {1}{16} : \dfrac {1}{216}$

Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

The subduplicate ratio of $\dfrac {1}{4} : \dfrac {1}{36}$ is $\sqrt {\dfrac {1}{4}} : \sqrt {\dfrac {1}{36}} = \dfrac {1}{2} : \dfrac {1}{6}$
