Given:

Chung has 6 trucks and 5 cars in his toy box.

Brian has 4 trucks and 5 cars in his toy box.

To find:

The correct comparison of their ratios of trucks to cars.

Solution:

The ratio of trucks to cars is defined as:


\text{Ratio}=\frac{\text{Number of trucks}}{\text{Number of cars}}

Chung has 6 trucks and 5 cars in his toy box. So, the ratio of trucks to cars is:


\text{Ratio}=(6)/(5)

Brian has 4 trucks and 5 cars in his toy box.


\text{Ratio}=(4)/(5)

We know that,


6>4


(6)/(5)>(4)/(5)

Therefore, the correct option is D.
