SCENARIO: What does the ratio 9:1 of 2 billion equal to?

ANSWER: The ratio of 9:1 of 2 billion means that the total amount is divided into 10 equal parts, where 9 parts are one value and 1 part is the other value.

To calculate the specific values:

• The total amount is 2 billion.
• The ratio is 9:1, which means the total is divided into 10 equal parts.
• 9 parts are one value, and 1 part is the other value.
• To find the value of each part, we divide the total (2 billion) by 10, which is 200 million.
• So the 9 parts that are one value equal 9 * 200 million = 1.8 billion.
• The 1 part that is the other value equals 1 * 200 million = 200 million.

Therefore, the ratio of 9:1 of 2 billion equals 1.8 billion : 200 million.
