Ratio

A number which shows a proportion or which is the result of one number divided by another.


A value obtained by dividing one number (the numerator) by another (the denominator).


The relationship in degree or number between two things. Particular ratios are listed under the first word.


The value obtained when one quantity is divided by another of the same kind to indicate their relative proportions is called a “ratio.” A ratio compares the magnitude or size of two or more quantities and expresses how many times one quantity is larger or smaller than another. It is commonly represented using a colon (:) or a fraction (/). Ratios are useful for comparing and analyzing data in various fields such as mathematics, science, finance, and statistics. They provide a way to understand the relationship and proportion between different quantities.
