Solution
Number of times Antony brushes a day = 2
Number of times Antony brushes a week = 2 × 7 = 14
Number of times Shabeen brushes a day = 1
Number of times Shabeen brushes a week = 1 × 7 = 7
Number of times Antony brushes : Number of times Shabeen brushes
= 14 : 7
= 2 : 1
The required ratio = 2 : 1
