Ratio is defined as a relationship between two quantities, it is expressed one divided by the other.

Giiven,

No. of males present at rally = 60

No. of females present at rally = 48

Total no. of people present = males + females = 60 + 48 = 108

The ratio of the males to the total number of people present = No. of males /Total present
