    25 : 2

    Step-by-step explanation:

    There are US, Indian and British stamps in Jo's collection. He has the US to Indian stamps in ratio 5 : 2 and the Indian to British stamp in ratio 5 : 1.

    So, the ratio of US to Indian stamps is 5 : 2 i. e. (5 * 5) : (2 * 5) = 25 : 10

    Again, the ratio of Indian to British stamps is 5 : 1 i. e. (5 * 2) : (1 * 2) = 10 : 2

    Therefore, the ratio of stamps of the US to Indian to British will be 25 : 10 : 2.

    Hence, the ratio of US to British stamps will be 25 : 2 (Answer)
