Step-by-step explanation:

You can simplify a ratio by multiplying or dividing all the numbers by the same quantity. I can see right away that, since 10 = 4 x 2.5 and 15 = 6 x 2.5, we could write your ratio as: 6:4:1 (after dividing everywhere by 2.5). We can’t simplify this further, so it is the final answer.

Or, you might hate decimals, and decide to first multiply everything by 2 to get rid of decimals, as a first step? In that case you’d first get: 30:20:5 (perfectly fine, and completely equivalent to the given ration BUT you are not finished because the ratio has to be presented in its simplest form for your final answer) so you would have to divide everywhere by the common factor 5, getting the same thing in the end: 6:4:1
