Is it 1:5 or 5:1?
Thanks for your help.
Price/Earnings
Therefore £15/$3=5
The p/e ratio is a single number. The number of times the earnings goes into the price. Or the number of years it takes the earnings to pay back the cost (share price).
If you wanted a ratio it would be 5:1 but p/e is not expressed like that.
5:1
