6 / 10 = 3 / 5
It can be written as:
6/10 (or 3/5), 6:10 (or 3:5), and 6 to 10 (or 3 to 5).
Remember, Mrs. Lewis baked SIX pies, and it asks you to put Lewis first. Mrs. Chrisman baked ten pies. Thus, you put it as 6:10, not 10:6.
Note: The answers in the parentheses are the ones you should use. This is because the directions are to put it in the simplest form.
6/10 (or 3/5), 6:10 (or 3:5), and 6 to 10 (or 3 to 5).
