What is the ratio of 6 nickles to 3 dollars

There are a few ways to represent ratio. Since 6 nickels comes first in the statement, it will come first in the ratio, and 3 dollars will come second since it comes second in the statement.

You can express ration with a / sign, a : sign, and the word to. So, your ratio would look like this:

6/3

6:3

6 to 3

Hope this helps!
