Maryland, USAIn [[mathematics]], a '''ratio''' indicates how many times one number contains another. For example, if there are eight oranges and six lemons in a bowl of fruit, then the ratio of oranges to lemons is eight to six (that is, 8∶6, which is equivalent to the ratio 4∶3). Similarly, the ratio of lemons to oranges is 6∶8 (or 3∶4) and the ratio of oranges to the total amount of fruit is 8∶14 (or 4∶7).
The numbers in a ratio may be quantities of any kind, such as counts of people or objects, or such as measurements of lengths, weights, time, etc. In most contexts, both numbers are restricted to be positive.
A ratio may be specified either by giving both constituting numbers, written as "''a'' to ''b''" or "''a''∶''b''", or by giving just the value of their [[quotient]] {{nowrap|{{sfrac|''a''|''b''}}.<ref>New International Encyclopedia</ref>}}<ref>{{Cite web|title=Ratios|url=https://www.mathsisfun.com/numbers/ratio.html|access-date=2020-08-22|website=www.mathsisfun.com}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|last=Stapel|first=Elizabeth|title=Ratios|url=https://www.purplemath.com/modules/ratio.htm|access-date=2020-08-22|website=Purplemath}}</ref> Equal quotients correspond to equal ratios.
Consequently, a ratio may be considered as an ordered pair of numbers, a [[Fraction (mathematics)|fraction]] with the first number in the numerator and the second in the denominator, or as the value denoted by this fraction. Ratios of counts, given by (non-zero) [[natural number]]s, are [[rational number]]s, and may sometimes be natural numbers. When two quantities are measured with the same unit, as is often the case, their ratio is a [[dimensionless number]]. A quotient of two quantities that are measured with ''different'' units is called a [[rate (mathematics)|rate]].<ref>''"The quotient of two numbers (or quantities); the relative sizes of two numbers (or quantities)"'', "The Mathematics Dictionary" [https://books.google.com/books?id=UyIfgBIwLMQC&lpg=PA349&dq=dictionary%20ratio&pg=PA349#v=onepage&q=dictionary%20ratio&f=false]</ref>

main reason why i don't think this should be a category on src is because how terrible/arbitrary/hard to standardize timing is; it relies on setting the endpoint at the same spot for everyone. also this feels almost like a checkpoint il, in that it's just a small section of an already existing il, which are not on the boards for a reason
As with all other categories, for it to be a category on SRC, you need to be able to demonstrate that there is enough demand; i.e. multiple people have run it (the more the better).
As squeali0 said, the levels and times are, for the most part, identical between PC and console. However, another advantage to PC is access to LiveSplit and Everest.
