May be you can change fraction to whole number.
A papaya is 3 times heavier than an orange, your ratio will be 3:1
A papaya is 2 times heavier than an orange, your ratio will be 2:1
A papaya is 2½ times heavier than an orange, your ratio will be 2½:1
A papaya is 3 times heavier than an orange, your ratio will be 3:1
A papaya is 2 times heavier than an orange, your ratio will be 2:1
A papaya is 2½ times heavier than an orange, your ratio will be 2½:1
But if...
A papaya is 3 (kg) heavier than an orange, your ratio will be u+3 : u
A papaya is 3 (kg) heavier than an orange, your ratio will be u+3 : u
