In mathematics, a ratio is a relationship between two numbers of the same kind (e.
g.
, objects,
persons, students, spoonfuls, units of whatever identical dimension), usually expressed as "a to b"
or a:b, sometimes expressed arithmetically as a dimensionless quotient of the two which explicitly
indicates how many times the first number contains the second (not necessarily an integer).
In layman s terms a ratio represents, simply, for every amount of one thing, how much there is of
another thing.
For example, suppose I have 10 pairs of socks for every pair of shoes then the ratio
of shoes:socks would be 1:10 and the ratio of socks:shoes would be 10:1
