Answer:

4:5

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that 12 inches =1 foot

Therefore 4 feet = 12*4=48 inches

[tex] \frac{4ft}{60 \: inch} = \frac{48 \: inches}{60 \: inches} = \frac{4 \times 12}{5 \times 12} = \frac{4}{5} [/tex]

The ratio of 4 feet to 60 inches is 4:5

This ratio is in the reduced form, we cannot simplify further.
