The way you ask the question, it is not clear what you are after....

When you are asking for help with a problem, it is polite to post the problem clearly. (Imagine you are writing a resume to apply for a job -- not texting a friend.)

2 out of 5 pink and the rest white means 2 pink for every 3 white.

fraction that are pink -- 2/5
fraction that are white -- 3/5

ratio of pink to total -- 2:5
ratio of white to total -- 3:5
ratio of pink to white -- 2:3
ration of white to pink -- 3:2
