no, a ratio is like, eg.
if you but one blueberry in your bowl, and two starwberrys, the ratio would be 1 to 2/ 1:2.
you could ask your math teacher. :P

New Answer : Two ratios are proportional in mathematics if they can both be reduced to the same value by division Proportion is an equality of ratios, and ratio is a relationship between two numbers which can be defined as the division of one number by the other. The ratio 4/2 and 16/8 are in proportion because they both can be reduced to 2 by division. They may be written as 4:2::16:8, which is read as '4 is to 2 as 16 is to 8'.
