Answer:

Ratios are used to make conversions by facilitating dimensional analysis

Step-by-step explanation

A conversion ratio is a ratio that is equal to one. The ratio will carry the name of the unit in conversion. For example,1 foot=12 inches. Dimension analysis is achieved by creating a conversion ratio that contains the units needed for the numerator and the units already contained in the denominator.
