Ratio 2=23 gallon of milk:10 gallon of fruit juice.  Concept used:  Ratio as some quantity to 1 are generally called as gear ratios. If we divide both term of the ratio then, we will get the ratio of some number to 1.  Calculation:  Ratio=gallons of soft drinks cinsumed: number of gallons of milk consumed.  =50:23=2.17  The gear ratio is 2.17:1 gear ratios are generally given by some quantities to 1. if we divide both the terms of the ratio by the second term, we will obtain, a ratio of some number to 1. Dividing both 30 and 8 gives the gear ratio of 2.17:1.  Conclusion:  The ratio as some quantity to 1 is 2.17:1.
