For every 3 basketball players, there is 5 football players

Step-by-step explanation:

This means for example, if there is 12 basketball players at the school, there will always be 20 football players. Since the term basketball players is before ratio and football players is after ratio, basketball players is 3, and football players is 5 (basketball:football). Sorry if my answer is confusing.
