I would wonder what your teacher possibly means by "meaning".

What is the meaning of .58? or 4:5?

6:7:13:8 is the simplest form.
Sorry Mr. Bobpursley I am writing the question again:
At the potluck , there were 6 pecan pies, 7 lemon pies, 13 cherry pies, and 8 apple pies. Find the ratio of apple pies to the total number of pies. Write the ratio in simplest form. Then explain its meaning.
For every 6 pecan pies there, are 7 lemon pies
It’s not it’s 23/45
