Examples are:

  • a ratio can also show a part compared to the whole lot. For example there are 5 pups, 2 are boys and 3 are girls, then the ratio of boys to girls 2/3, the ratio of boys to total is 2/5, the ratio of girls to total is 3/5.
  • a ratio can also be used in drawings. For example to draw a horse with a scale 1/10 from its normal size. Another example is that the height to width ratio of the Indian Flag is 2:3 or 2/3
  • Another examples are:
  • 1/2, 3/4, 78/89, ... etc
