$\frac{2cd}{5c^2}$

Short answer

The simplest form of the given algebraic ratio is,

$\frac{2cd}{5c^2}=\frac{2d}{5c}$

Step-by-step solution

Step 1. Given information.

The given algebraic ratio is,

$\frac{2cd}{5c^2}$

Step 2. Concept used.

The given ratio is$\frac{2cd}{5c^2}$,

To write the algebraic fraction in simplest form,

Divide the numerator and denominator with the common term.

So, in simplest form,

Step 3. Cancel out from numerator and denominator. 

So,

$\frac{2cd}{5c^2}=\frac{2d}{5c}$

Therefore, the simplest form of the given algebraic ratio is,$\frac{2cd}{5c^2}=\frac{2d}{5c}$ .
