If it is a ratio of 3:5 you are dividing 480 into 8 parts (3+5).
So divide 480 by 8: 480/8 = 60
Then the ratio is (3x60):(5x60) or 180:300
To check it is correct, add up the two parts to see that they come to 480:
180+300 = 480. All good.
Hope this helps
8*.8=6.4
4x+6.4=40
40-6.4=33.6
33.6/4=x
8.4=x
