The ratio is 347 to 743.
Or we can say

347 to 743

To find the ratio between Quandale's sweets and Alfred's sweets, we need to divide the number of Quandale's sweets by the number of Alfred's sweets.

Quandale has 347 sweets and Alfred has 743 sweets. So the ratio can be calculated as:

347 : 743

To simplify this ratio, we can divide both numbers by their greatest common divisor, which is 1 in this case.

The simplified ratio is:

347 : 743

Therefore, the ratio between Quandale's sweets and Alfred's sweets is 1:2.
