Okay, We need to find Green#/Grey#. solve these two equations first:
Green#*1/2 = Total#*1/4
Grey#*1/3 = Total#*1/7
Thus Green# = 1/2 and Grey# = 3/7
Green#/Grey# = 7 / (2*3) = 7/6
Green#*1/2 = Total#*1/4
Grey#*1/3 = Total#*1/7
Thus Green# = 1/2 and Grey# = 3/7
Green#/Grey# = 7 / (2*3) = 7/6

there must be error in this test. if half of the birds are green, and there are only green and grey birds, the ratio should be 1:1. please check.
