What is the difference between a part to part ratio and a part to whole ratio. Use the example of a bowl that has two oranges and five bananas.

Respuesta :

Part to part ratio is oranges to bananas, so: 2:5

Part to whole ratio is oranges to all fruits or bananas to all fruits.
Oranges to all fruits would be 2:7
Bananas to all fruits would be 5:7

Hope that makes sense
