Answer
The difference is mostly in the units given to the values in the comparison. Ratio means units are the same; rate means they differ.
In a ratio, the two quantities being compared have the same units. For example, three people chosen out of ten applicants - the 3 out of 10 (3:10) is a ratio, as both numbers refer to people. If we compare two sides of a triangle measuring 5m and 15m, the expression 5:15 is a ratio as both quantities are in metres.
