Answer:

The table with the missing number

1 5

2 10

5 25

10 50

Explanation:

The form of the equivalent ratios is
(a)/(b) =
(c)/(d) , where a, b, c, and d are integers

From the given table, we will use the first row in all cases (a = 1 and c = 5)

a = 1 and b = 2

c = 5

→ By using the form of the equivalent ratios above


(1)/(2) =
(5)/(d)

→ By using the cross multiplication

1 × d = 2 × 5

∴ d = 10

The first missing is 10

a = 1

c = 5 and d = 25

→ By using the form of the equivalent ratios above


(1)/(b) =
(5)/(25)

→ By using the cross multiplication

5 × b = 1 × 25

∴ 5b = 25

→ Divide both sides by 5

∴ b = 5

The second missing is 5

a = 1 and b = 10

c = 5

→ By using the form of the equivalent ratios above


(1)/(10) =
(5)/(d)

→ By using the cross multiplication

1 × d = 10 × 5

∴ d = 50

The third missing is 50

The equivalent ratios are
(1)/(5) =
(2)/(10) =
(5)/(25) =
(10)/(50)

The table with the missing numbers

1 5

2 10

5 25

10 50
