Quantities p and q are in the ratio 5:2. Which statements correctly distinguish a ratio from a fraction of the whole? Select all that apply.
Explication
Together p and q represent 7 equal parts, giving shares of 5/7 and 2/7, while their pairwise quotient remains 5/2. Treating 5/2 as p's share is impossible because a proper part of this positive whole cannot exceed one.
