Explanation
We are asked to find the ratio of the length to width of the rectangle with the dimensions:
width 6 ft and length 27 ft
The ratio will be
[tex]length:width=\frac{length}{width}=\frac{27}{6}=\frac{9\times3}{2\times3}[/tex]Cancelling out the common terms, we will have
[tex]\frac{9}{2}=9:2[/tex]Therefore, the answer will be 9:2
