In the diagram, the rectangle w has a width , a length of 8, and a perimeter of 24. What is the ratio of its width to its length?

Write your answer in the form x:y , where  x and  y are relatively prime positive integers.

Perimeter = 8 + 8   + w + w   = 24

                                    soooo   w = 4

ratio   w/l =    4/8 = 1/2
