Question

(02.01)The ratio of X's to O's is 12 over 9. . Use the image below to determine another ratio for X's to O's: Image with 12 Xs and 9 circles. The 12 Xs are broken down so that there are 4 Xs 3 times and the circles are broken down so that there are 3 circles 3 times.

3 over 4.
9 over 12.
4 over 3.
9 over 4.

Answer 1

The answer is 4 over 3.

Explanation:

if you look at the image all you have to do is count the X's on the top, and that's the top of your fraction, then count the bottom number, that's the bottom of your fraction.

4 on the top three on the bottom so your fraction/ratio is 4 over 3!

hope this helped!!!

Answer 2

4 over 3 or 4 : 3.

Explanation:

See the diagram attached.

Now, The ratio of X's to O's is 12 : 9.

Now, we have to determine another ration for X's to O's.

The image will help us to do that.

There are 12 numbers of X and that can be broken into 3 sets of X with 4 X in each set. Hence, 12 = 3 × 4

Again, there are 9 numbers of O and that can be broken into 3 sets of O with 3 O in each set. Hence, 9 = 3 × 3

Therefore, the ratio of X's to O's is 12 : 9 ≡ (3 × 4) : (3 × 3) ≡ 4 : 3
