In chemistry, the mass fraction of a substance within a mixture is the ratio (alternatively denoted ) of the mass of that substance to the total mass of the mixture. [1] Expressed as a formula, the mass fraction is: =. Because the individual masses of the ingredients of a mixture sum to , their mass fractions sum to unity: = =

As 120 ÷ 30 = 4, and 90 ÷ 30 = 3, one gets = Which method is faster "by hand" depends on the ...
More recent widescreen TVs have a 16:9 aspect ratio, or 1.78 rounded to two decimal places. One of the popular widescreen movie formats is 2.35:1 or simply 2.35. Representing ratios as decimal fractions simplifies their comparison. When comparing 1.33, 1.78 and 2.35, it is obvious which format offers wider image.
