How would you identify which reactant is consumed?

So would the reactant that is consumed, in this case NH3 be the one that would be used to find out the ratio of the products?

-what if i had of used oxygen to figure out the other products?

Both reactants are consumed, just one is consumed completely, while the other only in stoichiometric amount. That's what the limiting reagents are about.
