One question that has come up yet again that I am confused about is:
The width of a swimming pool is 18.5 ft and the length is 10.75 ft. Write the ratio of the length to width as a ratio of whole numbers.
To me the answer is 11/19. The answer the teacher says is correct is 43/74. How can that be right?
