The first expression is 21 garbage cans to 14 classrooms.

The ratio of the first quantity to the second is:

$\begin{gathered} (21)/(14) \\ \text{Reduce the fraction by 7:} \\ (3)/(2) \end{gathered}$

Hence the ratio is 3:2.

The second expression is 36 glasses of juice to 30 sandwiches.

The ratio of the first quantity to the second is:

$\begin{gathered} (36)/(30) \\ \text{Reduce the fraction by 6:} \\ (6)/(5) \end{gathered}$

The required ratio is 6:5.

The third expression is 12 flowers to 4 vases.

The ratio of the first quantity to the second is:

$\begin{gathered} (12)/(4) \\ \text{Reduce the fraction by }4\colon \\ (3)/(1) \end{gathered}$

The required ratio is 3:1.

The fourth expression is 4 books to 10 pupils.

The ratio of the first quantity to the second is:

$\begin{gathered} (4)/(10) \\ \text{Reduce the fraction by 2:} \\ (2)/(5) \end{gathered}$

Hence, the required ratio is 2:5.

The ratios are:

2.) 3:2

3.) 6:5

4.) 3:1

5.) 2:5
