The question is seeking a ratio of one kind of income to another. Find the proportions of the farm's income from fruit and vegetables in the first pie chart. The amount of income is not provided, but it's not necessary since you're being asked for a ratio and not an amount. One way to state a ratio is as a fraction. This is usually the most convenient way since you can perform arithmetic operations on a fraction. Here, the ratio is this:
\(\frac{Fruit}{Vegetables}= \frac{35}{28} =\frac{5}{4 }\) %
Analyze the graphs
The first pie chart shows the percentages of farm X's income for 2014 derived from livestock, fruit, and vegetables. The second pie chart shows the percentages of just the farm's income from vegetables derived from five different vegetables. Neither graph provides an amount of income; only percentages are given.
