Answer:- \frac{2}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given ration is 16 :40

In fraction, the above ratio can be written as : \frac{16}{40}

To write the above fraction in lowest terms, we need to divide the numerator and the denominator by the greatest common divisor.

Since, 16=2\times8\\40=5\times8, Hence, 8 is the greatest common divisor of 16 and 40.

Now, divide the numerator and denominator by 8, we get

\frac{16}{40}=\frac{2}{5}
