22. The ratio 2 to 1/3 is equal to the ratio
(A) 6to1
(B) 5to1
(C) 3to2
(D) 2to3
(E) 1to6

(B) 5to1
(C) 3to2
(D) 2to3
(E) 1to6
There are multiple ways you could do this.
One is to multiply both sides of the ratio, 2:1/3.
Try multiplying both sides by 3 to make 1/3 into the integer, 1.
You get 6:1.
That matches answer choice A.
Another way to do it is to convert 2 to 1/3's.
2 = 6/3. So the ratio becomes 6/3:1/3, which is obviously 6:1, matching answer choice A.
