Find the ratio between the total number of labors working in 2012 and 2013 together to the total number of labors working in 2015 and 2016 together.

Accepted Answer

**Solution:**

1. Calculate the total number of labors in 2012 and 2013:
   - For 2012: $120 + 180 = 300$
   - For 2013: $240 + 120 = 360$
   - Total for 2012 and 2013: $300 + 360 = 660$

2. Calculate the total number of labors in 2015 and 2016:
   - For 2015: $300 + 360 = 660$
   - For 2016: $360 + 300 = 660$
   - Total for 2015 and 2016: $660 + 660 = 1320$

3. Find the required ratio:
   $$\frac{	ext{Labors in 2012 and 2013}}{	ext{Labors in 2015 and 2016}} = \frac{660}{1320} = \frac{1}{2}$$

**Answer:** $1 : 2$
