Answer:

7:5

Explanation:

When finding ratios, make sure the ratio is in the correct order.

The question asks for the ratio of comedies to action movies. So, the number of comedies is on the left and the number of action movies is on the right.

28:20

The ratio can be simplified.

Dividing both sides by 4 gives the following ratio.

(28 ÷ 4 ):( 20 ÷ 4 ) = 7:5
