Well, honey, the external terms of a ratio are the first and last numbers in the ratio, while the internal terms are the second and third numbers. So if you've got a ratio like 2:5, the external terms are 2 and 5, and the internal terms are... you guessed it... 2 and 5. Math can be a real hoot, can't it?

RossOh, dude, external and internal terms of a ratio are just fancy words for the numbers that make up the ratio. The external term is the second number in the ratio, and the internal term is the first number. So, like, if you have a ratio of 2:5, 2 is the internal term and 5 is the external term. It's like the inside and outside of a math sandwich, but way less tasty.
