    The first ratio is 125:300

    Divide by 5

    25:60

    Divide by 5 again

    5:12

    Ratio is : - Heads: number of coin flips

    So now we plug in the numbers.

    A ratio compares two values.

    Ratio: 125:300

    Now we simplify by dividing both values by the same number.

    125:300 =

    125/5 = 25

    300/5 = 60

    We aren't done yet, because we can still simplify more.

    25:60=

    25/5 = 5

    60/5 = 12

    Our final ratio: 5:12
