Greetings!

Answer:

1:60

Step-by-step explanation:

Because no ratios have been included, I will just find the simplified version. To simplify a number you need to find the highest number that goes into both numbers. In this case it is 5.

Now, divide both sides by 5:

[tex]\frac{300}{5} : \frac{5}{1}[/tex]

Or:

60 : 1

So the ratio of raisins to boxes is 60:1, or 1:60 for boxes to raisins.


Hope this helps!
