A ratio is one number divided by another.

Depending on the relationship being measured, financial ratios are generally expressed as numbers, for example a price to earnings ratio of 10.

Other ratios are conventionally expressed as percentages, for example a dividend yield of 2%.

Ratios may also be expressed as proportions, for example a debt to equity ratio of 1:1 (the same as 100%, or 1).
