Answer:

From Dial it, we have plans of $16 per 2 gb.

then the ratio is (number of gb you get):price

in this case:

2:16 or we can reduce it to 1:8

this means that per each Gigabyte, you pay 8 dollars. 1:8

Ring Ring has plans of $9 per 1gb

then the ratio of gb to Dollars is 1:9

And the ratio between the prices of the companies is: 8 to 9 or 8:9

which means that in one company you get one thing for 8, while in the other company you get the same thing for 9.
