    1000 : 269 : 47

    Step-by-step explanation:

    A ratio is a way of comparing the value or amount of one quantity to another.

    We are to find the ration of water to sucrose to saline solution, hence, it must remain in that order.

    Water : Sucrose : Saline solution

    The amount of water is 1 litre (1 * 1000 ml = 1000 ml)

    The amount of sucrose is 269 ml

    The amount of saline solution is 47 ml

    Therefore, the ratio of water to sucrose to saline solution is:

    W : S : SS = 1000 : 269 : 47

    Since 1000, 269 and 47 have no common factors, that is the simplest form of the ratio.
