Answer:
Ratio, in math, is the term that is used to compare two or more numbers. It is used to indicate how big or small is one quantity when compared to another. Two quantities are being compared using division. Here the dividend is called the 'antecedent' and the divisor is called the 'consequent'.

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
