Answer is the ratio 3:5
Explanation:
To write the pants to shirt ratio, we write the numbers 12 and 20 in that order (since they correspond to the counts of each clothing item). Separate them with a colon to get 12:20
The last step is to divide both parts by the GCF 4
12/4 = 3
20/4 = 5
The ratio 12:20 fully reduces to 3:5
For every 3 pairs of pants, you have 5 shirts.
