ANSWER


1\colon1\colon4

Step-by-step explanation

We want to find the ratio of 2 weeks to 14 days to 8 weeks.

To do this, we first have to put all three terms in the same unit. Let us put all the terms in days.

To convert from weeks to days, multiply the weeks by 7:


\begin{gathered} 2w=2\cdot7=14d \\ 8w=8\cdot7=56d \end{gathered}

Therefore, the ratio becomes:


14days\colon14days\colon56\text{days}

Now, put it in the lowest terms by dividing through by 14. That is:


1\colon1\colon4

That is the answer.
