12/20 = 3/5
There are many ratios that form a proportion 5/7. For instance: 5/7 = 10/14 So any ratio that forms a proportion with 5 over 7 is 5k1/(7k2) where k1 = k2, and k1, k2 are any real values.
The divine proportion, also known as the Golden Ratio and symbolised by the Greek letter, phi, is [1+sqrt(5)]/2 = 1.6180, approx.
The Golden Ratio or the Divine Proportion. It is, in fact 0.5*(1+sqrt(5))
The golden ratio (golden section) is the division of a line so that the whole is to the greater part as that part is to the smaller part (i.e., in a ratio of 1 to 1/2 (√5 + 1)), a proportion that is considered to be particularly pleasing to the eye.

"Is to" usually indicates a ratio or a proportion. 5 is to 10 as 9 is to 18.

Oh, dude, let me break it down for you. So, the ratio 2 to 5 is not equal to the ratio 5 to 2. It's like saying you have 2 pizzas for every 5 friends, which is not the same as saying you have 5 pizzas for every 2 friends. See what I mean? It's all about the order, man.
Virtually all national flags have a stipulated length/width ratio, usually 2:1, 3:2, or 5:3. The US flag ratio is 1.9:1 ( one point [decimal] nine to one).
No, it is not equivalent. Think of it this way. If you had £12 and I had £5 then you would have money in the ratio of 12 to 5 compared to me. If you then only had £5 and I had £17 (which represents the new ratio of 5 to 17) you would not agree that this was equivalent as a proportion (you would rightly feel that you had lost out)!
A ratio is something we use to describe the proportion between a set of numbers.Example Question:What is the ratio between the numbers 2, 10 and 24You would first write it down as...2:10:24You would then find the greatest common factor (in this case, it is 2) and divide all the numbers by that common factor to get the ratio to it's simplest form...2 / 2 = 110 / 2 = 524 / 2 = 121:5:12
You can't answer a ratio but you can put numbers in ratio form like the numbers 5 and 2. This is how you put those numbers in ratio form,5:2, 5 to 2, or 5 over 2. The reason you put the 5 in front of the 2 is because, the the question asked 5 and 2 not 2 and 5.
2/5 is the simplest way to write it.
