Well 5/7 is a fraction, which means you've got 5 slices out of a 7 slice pie. In the "business world," we don't like the word fraction, so we call it something else--a ratio.
5/7 in the "business world" could mean the ratio 5 to 7, which can be written a number of ways. In words, as I just did, or substituting a colon (:) for the word "to."
So 5/7 would be the ratio 5:7, meaning 5 to 7.

The slash mark is another way of denoting ratios therefore the alternative expression is 5:7.

The answer is
5:7
But I guess I am not the first to answer correctly so I wouldn't be surprised if you didn't give me 10 points.
