Amagazine photographed is 24 cm long and 16 write each ratio

Since the length is 24 and the width is 16, we have the length to width ratio equal to 24/16. Since 8 goes into 24 3 times and into 16 2 times, we have 3/2. For width to length, we have 16/24=2/3 using the same reasoning as last time (except the numerator and denominator are flipped)
