Answer:
3:5
- If Bob has 12 red cards and 20 green cards, all we have to do is write the two numbers seperated by a colon.
[tex]12~to~20 -- > 12:20[/tex]
- How did we get 3:5 then, you may be asking? It is just a few simple steps. All you need to do is find the divisor. How do we find the divisor? Find the lowest or highest number that both parameters are divisible by.
[tex]\frac{12 / 4}{20 / 4} = \frac{3}{5} -- > 3:5[/tex]
