Ratio examples

Ratio is the numerical relation of one quantity to another of the same kind. Let us now look at some Ratio examples.To find the ratio of 2 m 25 cm to 75 cm, we first change 2 m 25 cm into cm, which equals 225 cm. Now, we have to find 225 cm to 75 cm

ratio is

= 3 : 1

We can write the above ratio as

(i) 3 : 1 or (ii) or (iii) the ratio 3 to 1 or (iv) 3. The mean deviation of a statistical data is defined as the arithmetic mean of the numerical values of the deviations of items from some average value.Let us now understand the meaning of mean and standard deviation.

Mean deviation is also known as average deviation.Standard Deviation of a statistical data is defined as the positive square root of the arithmetic mean of the squared deviations of items from their arithmetic mean of the series under consideration.

The standard deviation is denoted by s (sigma).In the next blog we will learn about percentage change calculator.Hope you like the above example of ratio examples,please leave your comments if you have any doubts.
