I just have a simple question concerning rations..

would I be correct that 6:24 = 1/5 = 20%???

I think thats wwere I keep getting hung up, I just keep reading ratios as fractions, and I dont know why. I have to force it into my head that hte 6 represents 20% and the 24 represnts 80%. Instead I always just read it as a fraction cuz Im a retard and just see 25%, you see what I mean?
