Solution :

To find the ratio of the wooden toys sold by Rahul to the wooden toys sold by Ram, we can analyze the given information step-by-step:

Let the number of wooden toys sold by Ram be represented as WRam and the number of wooden toys sold by Rahul be represented as WRahul.

From the problem statement, the number of wooden toys sold by Rahul is 6623% of the wooden toys sold by Ram.

We convert the percentage to a fraction:
6623%=2003×100=23

Therefore, we can write the relationship as:
WRahul=23×WRam

To find the ratio of the wooden toys sold by Rahul to the wooden toys sold by Ram, we divide both sides by WRam:
WRahulWRam=23

Thus, the required ratio is 2:3.
