    a) 2:5

    b). 10:3.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    2 hours to 300 minutes

    = 120 minutes to 300 minutes

    Dividing both numbers by 60 we have

    2 : 5.

    b. 5 km to 1 km 500 m

    = 5,000 m to 1500 m

    Divide both numbers by 100:

    = 50:15

    = 10:3.

    a) 2:5

    b) 10:3

    Step-by-step explanation:

    a) 2 hours = 60 min x 2 = 120 min

    hence,

    2 hours : 300 minutes

    120 min : 300 min (divide both by 60)

    2:5

    b)

    1km 500 m = 1000 + 500 = 1500m

    5km = 5000m

    hence,

    5 km : 1 km 500 meters

    5000 : 1500 (divide both sides by 500)

    10:3
