At Jacks ice cream shop, a customer receives a free ice cream cone for every 5 ice cream cones the customer purchases. What is the ratio of the number if ice cream cones a customer purchases to the total number of ice cream cones the customer purchases and receives for free?
For every 5 ice-cream cones there is one free one which would mean that you would have 5 over one as your answer.
Answer:
1:5
