#3:5#

Let #x# be Jane's part of candy bar.
"Henry's part of the candy bar is 3/5 as large as Jane's part" means Henry's part of candy is #3/5x#.

The ratio of Henry's part to Jane's
#=3/5 x:x#

#=3/5:1#

#=3/5*5:1*5#

#=3:5#

*Reminder: Be careful the question is asking the ratio of WHAT to WHAT. Don't reverse the 2 things.

Hope this can help you :)
