The ratio of triangles to rectangles is 2:5
Find the ratio of circles to triangles to rectangles.​

Answer 1

2:3:5

Explanation:

Here, we are going to be using direct numbers from the ratio

So for 200 circles, there are 300 triangles

Triangles to rectangles ; 2:5

Circles to triangles to rectangles is thus;

200: 300:500

= 2:3:5
