It is the quantitative relation between two quantities which reflects the relative size of both the quantities. It is simply the means to compare the quantities.
Example 1: Suppose in a classroom there are 20 boys and 40 girls. Find the ratio of boys to girls.
Solution: Here, the ratio of number of boys to the number of girls will be 20/40.
By using fraction, we can write 20/40 = 1/2.
Thus, the numbers of boys are half the number of girls in the classroom.
In terms of ratio, it is written as 1:2 and read as “1 is to 2”
