Answer: 2:5

Explanation:

To find the ratio, we need to find the greatest common factor and divide both of the dimensions by the greatest common factor. In this case 12 is the greatest common factor.

24/12=2

60/12=5

Therefore, the ration that expresses the scale used to create this dimension is 2:5.
