There are 18 bulls and 45 cows on a ranch.

What is the ratio of bulls to cows, and how do you figure the answer?

Answer (2)

You haven't said what ratio you want.
Ratio of Bulls to Total beefs = 18/63 = 2/7
Ratio of Cows to Total Beefs = 45/63 = 5/7
Ratio of Bulls to Cows = 18/45 = 2/5
Ratio of Total Beefs to Frustrated Cows = 63/27 = 7/3
Ratio of Total Beefs to Exhausted Bulls = 63/18 = 7/2 .
. .
etc.

The ratio of bulls to cows on the ranch is 2:5. This means that for every 2 bulls, there are 5 cows. To find this ratio, we simplified the fraction 45 18 ​ to 5 2 ​ .
