Real quick questions, is the sign : the same as to?

example

4:2 = 4 to 2


Also would 24:2 be the same as 24/2?

Answered by Ms. Sue
Yes, you're right.

Technically, yes. A ratio can commonly be set up in a division equation such as what you have. You could also take 24:2 and make 24 to 2 as you did with 4:2.
