A is 3 / 5 of B, and B is what part of a? How much less is a than B? How much more is B than a?

A is 3 / 5 of B, and B is what part of a? How much less is a than B? How much more is B than a?


1 --- B is 5 / 3 of a (i.e. 5 / 3)
2 --- A is 2B / 5 less than B
3 --- B is 2A / 3 more than a (i.e. 2A / 3)



If a: B = 7:8, then a is a fraction of B, B is a fraction of a, a is less than B, B is more than a


A is 8 / 7 of B, B is 7 / 8 of a, a is 8 / 8 less than B, B is 7 / 8 more than a



If a: B = 1:8, what fraction of B is a?


1/8



5 out of 8 is a fraction of 5 out of 12


3 / 2
