Answer: Part-to-part

Explanation:

This is a part-to-part, because they show part of apples, and part of oranges. This ratio when set up is 4:3. If the ratio was part-to-whole, then the apples would be compared to the total amount of oranges and apples. The ratio for part-to-whole would be 4:7.

Hope this helps!
