Hi. Im guessing you want a word problem with the ratio 3:2? If yes, here is one.

There is an apple tree and orange tree. From the apple tree, 3 apples fall off. From the orange tree, 2 oranges fall of. What is the ratio of fallen apples to fallen oranges?

OR

There are 5 kids in a class. There are 3 boys. What is the ratio of boys to girls in this small class?
*First do 5-3=2 So there are 2 girls....3:2

Hope that helps! :) By the way, I know these word problems are a little kids, but they were the only ones I could think of on the spot
