#3:4#

Explanation:

Sub-duplicate ratio of any ratio is ( as the name suggests ) only partially duplicate.

For eg. #16:81 to 4:9#

The sub-duplicate ratio of #16:81# is #4:9#.

For the first few seconds you would think that #16/81 = 4/9#

but this is actually wrong. This is how the name comes, the sub-

duplicate ration looks equivalent ( equal ) to the given ratio but is

actually very different thatn that of the given ratio.
