Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The ratio of carbon to hydrogen to oxygen in carbohydrate molecules is 1:2:1. The component carbon (C, carbo-) and the component water (H20, -hydrate) give the name to this group of organic molecules.

Detailed explanation-2: -What is a carb ratio? A carb ratio (also called carbohydrate to insulin ratio) is the number of grams of carbohydrate covered by one unit of rapid acting insulin. Your carb ratio may: Need to change as basal doses or rates change.

Detailed explanation-3: -Carbohydrates can be represented by the formula (CH2O)n, where n is the number of carbon atoms in the molecule. In other words, the ratio of carbon to hydrogen to oxygen is 1:2:1 in carbohydrate molecules. Carbohydrates are classified into three subtypes: monosaccharides, disaccharides, and polysaccharides.
