Answer 2

Hey there!

$\boxed{BoxA: 18}$

$\boxed{BoxB:36}$

You could have your $ratio$ to look like this: $18:36$ (most likely going to be your answer if you are looking for the ratio of the number)

BUT if you're trying to solve your $ratio$ then....

Both terms go into $18$, $9$, and $2$

$\frac{18}{2}$ $= 9$

$\frac{36}{2} = 18$

$\boxed{9:18}$

$\frac{18}{9} = 2$

$\frac{36}{9} = 4$

$\boxed{2:4}$

$\frac{18}{18} = 1$

$\frac{36}{18} = 2$

$\boxed{1:2}$

Answer: $\boxed{36:18}$ or $\boxed{18:36}$

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
