150 miles : 250 miles

150/250 = 3/5, or 3 : 5, or 3 to 5

No matter the format, all three answers mean the same thing.

Change 150 miles to 150 men, and 250 miles to 250 women. Imagine you walk into a ballroom and you want to find the ratio of men to women. With an answer of 3:5, you are saying for every 3 men in the ballroom, there are 5 women.
