The ratio should be written as:

mining:manufacturing:communication

Since there are three varieties of ratio's, then there is a specific answer for each. For the first example, the ratio is written as:

33/77:22/77:22/77

To find the integer ratio, divide all numbers with the smallest value, 22/77. The ratio becomes: 1.5:1:1

For the second example,

55/77:11/77:11/77

To find the integer ratio, divide all numbers with the smallest value, 11/77. The ratio becomes: 5:1:1

For the third example,

0:11/77:66/77

For this, exclude the ratio for mining because if you use this as the value, then all the numbers would be zero. Instead, divide using 11/77. The ratio becomes: 6:1.
