Answer:

12:5

Because they do not share any common factors, this ratio is already in its simplest form.

Hope I helped!

Answer:

The ratio is already in simplest form

Explanation:

Note the factors of both numbers:

12: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12

5: 1, 5

They do not share any factors (except for one, which doesn't count), therefore, you cannot simplify both of them (as what you do to one side, you have to do to the other).
