3 periods, 20 minutes each

20 3 = 60 minutes

12 minutes per period

12 3 = 36

So the ratio is 36:60, or simplified: 3:5

Lemony

Ice Hockey Game (Possible): 3 periods each 20 minutes long so 3 times 20 = 60
Colin's Play time: 3 periods each 12 minutes long so 3 times 12 = 36

Ratio - 36:60, 36 to 60, 36/60 or if simplified 3:5, 3 to 5, 3/5

Answer: 36:60 or 3:5
