There are 300 raisins in 5 boxes of raisins. What would be the proper way to express the ratio of boxes to raisins?

OK.......
The ratio of the boxes to raisins
First find out what 300 divided by 5 is
That is 60
That means 60 raisins are in 1 box
Now what is 60% of 1?
0.1
That means the ratio is
1 to 6 (boxes to raisins)

300 / 5 = 60

boxes to raisins = 1 : 60
