From the info you can say that :
Carton A's ratio
Pears : Oranges : Total in A
1 : 2 : 3
Carton B's ratio
Pears : Oranges : Total in B
11 : 4 : 15
The total number of fruits in each carton is the same. Make the units the same for the total.
So, Carton A's ratio
Pears : Oranges : Total in A
1 : 2 : 3
5 : 10 : 15 (after multiplying by 5)
Total units of pears = 11 + 5 = 16
Total units of oranges = 4 + 10 = 14
Ratio of total number of pears to total number of oranges = 16 : 14 = 8 : 7
