The answer is 1/2, or one half. A ratio of x to yis always x/y. More correctly, it is 1/3 of one item and 2/3 of another.

If you divide $1200 between two people in the ratio 1:2 the first gets 1/3 of $1200, which is $400, and the other gets 2/3 of $1200, which is $800.

If you mix your orange squash with water in a ratio of 1:2, then for each cup of squash you add 2 cups of water to get 3 cups of your drink altogether.

The ratio is 1/2.

Multiply both the numerator (top) and the denominator (bottom) of this ratio by any non-zero integer or divide both by any common factor and you will have an equivalent ratio.
