The three ways to write the ratio that compares 4 electronic devices for every 3 people are:
1. 4 to 3, 4:3, 43: Here, you simply write "4 to 3" or "4:3" to indicate that there are 4 electronic devices for every 3 people. The "43" is an incorrect representation of the ratio.
2. 4 to 3, ratio of 4 to 3, Start fraction 4 over 3 end fraction: In this representation, you first write "4 to 3" and then specify that it is the ratio of 4 to 3. Additionally, you can write it as a fraction with numerator 4 and denominator 3.
3. 3 to 4, 3:4, 34: This is an incorrect representation of the ratio, as it reverses the order of the comparison. The correct ratio is 4 electronic devices for every 3 people, not the other way around.
So, the correct ways to write the ratio are the first and second representations mentioned above.
