    A pet supply chain called pet city has 15 hamsters and 12 gerbils for sale at its seaside location. At its livingston location there are 19 hamsters and 10 gerbils. Which location has a lower ratio of hamsters to gerbils?

    Seaside ratio
    15/12 = 1.25

    Livingston ratio
    19/10 = 1.9

    Since 1.25 < 1.9, Seaside has the lower ratio of hamsters to gerbils
