What does a ratio compare?

  1. Comparison of two angles

  2. Comparison of one number

  3. Comparison of two numbers

  4. Comparison of three numbers

The correct answer is: Comparison of two numbers

A ratio compares two numbers, and may be expressed in the form of a fraction or with a colon (). Option A is incorrect because a ratio does not necessarily have to involve angles. Option B is also incorrect because it only compares one number instead of two. Option D is incorrect because a ratio typically compares two numbers, not three.
