$\bold{ExPlAnAtIoN}\downarrow$

We can write the ratios 1 : 4 and 3 : 10 as fractions :

$\displaystyle\frac{1}{4}$

and

$\displaystyle\frac{3}{10}$

Put the fractions together :

$\displaystyle\frac{1}{4} \:and\:\frac{3}{10}$

Both fractions are in their simplest form ; the numerator and denominator do not have any common factors , except 1 , and there's no point in dividing by 1.
