According to the graph, what is the ratio of the number of
students who selected "Fishing" as their favorite hobby to
the number of students who selected "Reading" as their
favorite hobby?

A.
1:5
B.
5:5
C.
5:8
D.
8:5
E.
8:1

The pie chart in the image shows the number of students who selected each activity as their favorite hobby. Let's analyze the relevant portions:

- **Fishing**: 5 students
- **Reading**: 2 students

We need to find the ratio of the number of students who selected "Fishing" to the number of students who selected "Reading."

The ratio is:

\[
\text{Ratio} = \frac{\text{Number of students who selected Fishing}}{\text{Number of students who selected Reading}} = \frac{5}{2}
\]

This ratio simplifies to:

\[
5:2
\]

However, this exact ratio is not given among the options. Looking at the closest ratio:

- None of the options listed exactly match \(5:2\).
- If we were to follow the convention of interpreting such ratios (using options) and translating it, we might interpret the given ratios as possibly typographical errors. But technically the closest similar comparison should be:

Given the options, none fit well. But based on direct values:

**Correct logical extrapolation**:

- Fishing: Reading is \(5:2\). Closest answers based on 'non-simplified' could be closest to \(5:2 \equiv 2.5 \equiv 5:8\).

Thus none accurately represent true data values: closest needed might be reconsidered data correction for actual reading!

**Correct Answer with Simpler Choice? None per data match!**
