(5)/(3)

Step-by-step explanation

A ratio is a relationship between two things when it is expressed in numbers or amounts

for example

ratio a to b


(a)/(b)

then

Step 1

let

number of cats= 3

number of dogs=5

so

ratio dogs to cats would be:


\text{ratio}=\frac{dogs}{\text{cats}}=(5)/(3)

therefore, the anser is


(5)/(3)

I hope this helps you
