ratio of cheese to pepperoni...
45 cheese....20 pepperoni.....45/20 reduces to 9/4 or 9:4

little tip ** be careful of the wording of problems such as these.....because if it asked for the ratio of pepperoni to cheese, it would have been 4:9

Okay , all you have to do is simplify 45/20 which is 9/4. so the answer is B.
