3:5

Explanation:

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 :)
