Answer: Option B 5 to 7

Explanation:

Essam has 3 apples, 5 bananas, and 7 carrots, and we want to find the ratio of bananas to carrots, this is, for each X carrots, how may bananas be?

We know that we have 7 carrots and 5 bananas, so the ratio can be:

for every 7 carrots, Essam has 5 bananas.

This ratio can be written as 5 to 7

So the correct option is B
