Protin in muscle = 16% of 1/3,
Protin in Bone = 16% of 1/6,
= 16*1/3/ 16*1/6.
= 6 * 1 * 6/ 3*1*16.
= 6/3.
= 2:1.

(16÷100)* 1/3= 16 ÷ 300,
(16/100) * 1/6= 16 ÷ 600,
(16÷300) : (16/600) OR (16/300)÷(16/600) Now to make the ratio in a simple form, reciprocal the division to multiply 16/600 to 600/16.

= 16/300 * 600/16,
= 600/300.
= 2/1 or 2:1.

I didn't understand how 6/3 came as a result of (16% of 1/3)/(16% of 1/6)? Please anyone explain me.
