Mixture A has 3 parts concentrate for 5 parts of water. Mixture B has 4 parts concentrate for 5 parts water.

 

So, for every 3 parts of concentrate you add 5 parts water or 3:5 for mixture A. Mixture B's ratio would be 4:5

 

Notice that Mixture B would be stronger because you are adding more concentrate to the same amount of water.
