A garden is 6 yards 24 inches wide and 5 yards long. Write the ratio of the width to the length as a fraction in simplest form.

Here, the first step would be to convert all the measurements into a single unit.

Since inches is the smallest units, we convert all the measurements to inches

The conversion is 1 yard = 36 inches

Width = 6 yards 24 inches

Width (in inches) = 6*36 + 24 = 240 inches

Length = 5 yards

Length (in inches) 5*36 = 180 inches

Ratio of the width to the length = 240/180 = 4/3

Ratio of the width : length = 4 : 3
