What does the generator do?
The generator picks small ratios and totals divisible by the sum of the parts so every problem has a whole-number answer.
How to solve
A 2 : 3 ratio means 5 equal parts. Divide the whole into that many parts and give each side the right number of them. For equivalent ratios, multiply both sides by the same number.
