Answer:

Option: D is the correct answer.

D. 4 to 3

Explanation:

Equivalent ratio--

Two ratio's are said to be equivalent if by applying some appropriate multiplication or division to both numerator as well as denominator both of them results to the same ratio.

Here it is given that:

Colton wrote a ratio comparing the number of sports video games that he owns to the number of driving video games that he owns as 4:3 (i.e.
(4)/(3) )

This means that it could be written as:

4 to 3

( which is nothing but
(4)/(3) )
