Answer:

40:15 = 8:3

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the answer because:

1) Since there are 40 elephants and 15 baby elephants, the answer would be 40:15, but we want to simplify the ratio. In order to simplify the ratio, just divide each number by 5:

40 ÷ 5 = 8

15 ÷ 5 = 3

8:3

Therefore, the answer is 8:3.

Hope this helps! :D
