The ratio is 5:2 because it’s asking for the ratio muffins to every 2 bran sold

We are given here that for every 2 bran muffins that the bakery is selling , it also sells 5 apple muffins.

So we can write the ratio of apple muffins to bran muffins as :

Apple muffins : Bran muffins = 5:2

In fraction form it can be written as :


(Apple muffins )/(Bran muffins ) = (5)/(2)

Answer : Ratio is Apple muffins : Bran muffins = 5:2
