Explanation:

A recipe uses 3 cups of flour and 2 cups of sugar.

The ratio is the relation between two quantities of the same kind.

For example:

There are 10 boys and 9 girls in a class. The ratio of boys to girls is 10 : 9

We can write the ratio in fraction form :
`(10)/(9)` and also we can simplify the ratio.

Now let's move to our question.

The ratio of 3 cups of flour and 2 cups of sugar is 3:2

This can be written as
`(3)/(2)`
