here Ratio for team A to team B money collection is 5:6
The ratio for team A to team B team members is 2:3
so for the team, A collected money by each student is 5/2 same as for the team B it's 6/3 hence 2/1,
now the ratio of money collected per student on team A to money collected per student on team B is 5/2/2 --- > 5 / 2*2 --- > 5:4

Money Ratio:
A:B = 5:6
No. of Student Ratio:
A:B = 2:3
or. A:B = 4:6
Money Collected Per Student:
Team A: From 4 students, they collected 5$, ratio -> 5:4
Team B: From 6 students, they collected 6$, ratio -> 6:6 =1
Then Team A: Team B = (5/4): 1 or, simply 5:4 [Ans:]
A:B = 5:6
No. of Student Ratio:
A:B = 2:3
or. A:B = 4:6
Money Collected Per Student:
Team A: From 4 students, they collected 5$, ratio -> 5:4
Team B: From 6 students, they collected 6$, ratio -> 6:6 =1
Then Team A: Team B = (5/4): 1 or, simply 5:4 [Ans:]
