If 8 out of 10 dentists approve a certain brand of toothpaste, what is the ratio of dentist who approve the toothpaste to those who do not, given in simplified form?

4:1

Well not much to explain tbh it’s kinda obvious.

We know if 8 doctors approve, then 2 doctors don't approve so the ratio would be 8:2, which is simplified to 4:1
