a contractor spent 90 minutes preparing an estimate for a job and 24 hours doing the job. what was the ratio of the time spent preparing the estimate to the time spent doing the work on the job?

first you need to convert the hours to minutes so we can work with the same units:24hrs*60min/hr=1,440 minutesso the ratio is--> 90:1440 simplified answer--> 1:16
