      Divide by the largest number that divides into both. (Greatest Common Factor)


      Example:


      28:56  > The GCF is 28 >  28/28 = 1 and 56 * 28 = 2. So the ratio is...............


      1:2


      15:25  > The GCF is 5  >  15 * 5 = 3 and 25 * 5 = 5. So the ratio is..................
