1/4th of Mai’s height is equal to 2/5th of Jon’s height

Let 'x' represent Mai's height and 'y' represent Jon's height.

Therefore, 1/4th of "x" should be equal to 2/5th of "y". This gives us the following equation :

(1/4)x = (2/5)y

multiply both sides by 4/y

x/y = 4*(2/5)

x/y = 8/5

x:y = 8:5

The ratio of Mai's s height to Jon's height is 8 to 5
