To find the ratio of 30 days to 36 hours, we first need to convert both quantities to the same unit. Let's convert days into hours.

Conversion of Days to Hours

There are 24 hours in a day. Therefore, to convert 30 days into hours:

  • 30 days × 24 hours/day = 720 hours

Setting Up the Ratio

Now we can set up the ratio of 720 hours to 36 hours:

  • Ratio = 720 hours : 36 hours

Simplifying the Ratio

Next, we simplify the ratio:

  • 720 ÷ 36 = 20

Thus, the simplified ratio is:

  • 20 : 1

Final Answer

The ratio of 30 days to 36 hours is 20 : 1.
