Fractions and Ratios are 2 different things

A Fraction has a part and a whole

A Ratio has a part and a part

Ratio to Fraction

How to get a ratio from a fractions is you add the two parts together you get a whole. Thats the denominator. To get the numerator is you get the first number in front of the ratio

ex.4:9 denominator 4+9=13 numerator 4 =4/13

Fraction to Ratio

How to get a the ratio is you have to get the first number. you get it fromt he numerator. you subtract the denominator from the numerator which gives you second number

ex.4/13 first number- 4 second number- 4-13=9= 4:9
