The ratio of ham sandwiches to turkey sandwiches is 2:3

Here, we want to find the given ratio

We want to find the ratio of the ham sandwiches to the turkey sandwiches

What we have to do here is to place the values side by side and put a semi-colon between them in the particular order specified

The ratio is as follows;

ham snadwiches : turkey sandwiches

We have that as;

4 : 6

Now, we need to write this in the simplest form

We can also have a ratio in its frcation form

All we have to do is to place the first number over the second

Thus,we have this as;


4\colon6\text{ = }(4)/(6)\text{ = }(2(2))/(2(3))\text{ = 2:3}
