2.) 11:8
Step-by-step explanation:
In question number 1, all you have to do is to ratio the given value of marbles and books. In the pattern marbles:books because it states 'to' hinting that the value of the marbles will be given first.
In question number 2, same rules apply. If it says 'in English from Math' then Math will go first. But since it states in English to Math, the value of English goes first. Pattern: English:Math.
