Answer:
Sure! So first let's get the concept of what really is a ratio. A ratio can be in fraction form as well.
Anyway, let's start off with an example.
Let's say Bill has 6 red cars, and 8 blue trucks, what's the ratio between the cars and the trucks?
The answer is 6 : 8 since there are 6 cars and 8 trucks.
Note, if the question asked the ratio between trucks and cars the answer would be 8 : 6. But wait!!! That's actually not the answer, for, we have to simplify it. The greatest common factor of 6 and 8 is 2.
So, let's divide both 6 and 8 by two to get the simplified ratio as 3 : 4.
I hope this short demo had helped you :)
