“Ratio” In mathematics, a ratio indicates how many times one number contains another. For example, if there are eight oranges and
six lemons in a bowl of fruit, then the ratio of oranges to lemons is eight to
six. Similarly, the ratio of lemons to oranges is 6:8 and the ratio of oranges to the total amount of fruit is 8:14.
