Answer:

Ring toss game

Explanation:


2:7 can be rewritten as
(2)/(7), which is
\approx0.286.

We can now compare the probabilities of winning for each game.


0.286 > 0.25

This means the odds of winning the ring toss game (
0.286) are higher than the odds of winning the balloon dart game
(0.25).
