Answer:

6/7, 24/28, 36/42 (See explanation!)

Explanation:

To get an equivalent ratio, do an operation on both the top and bottom of the fraction. For example, dividing the top and bottom by 2 would be:

(12÷2)/(14÷2)

6/7

Follow this process (doing same thing to top and bottom) to get two more ratios. If you wanted, you could multiply by 2:

(12x2)/(14x2)

24/28

Note: A ratio is the same as a fraction

Hope this helps!
