Answer:

1)14 to 28

14:28

14/28

2) 1 to 9

1:9

1/9

3) 3 equivalent ratios are : 2/18,1/9, 3/27

4) On this case would be 12/36 and if we divide numerator and denominator by 6 we got 2/6, and if we divide by 2 we got 1/3 simplified

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A ratio represent "the relative sizes of two or more values."

"Ratios can be shown in different ways:

• using the ":" to separate example values

• using the "/" to separate one value from the total

• as a decimal, after dividing one value by the total

• as a percentage, after dividing one value by the total"

Part 1

14 monkeys and 18 chimpanzees.

And we need to write the situation in 3 ways comapring the first quantity to the second quantity, and the correct way to do this is:

14 to 28

14:28

14/28

Part 2

In largo city, about one in every nine homes contains four televisions

And we need to write the situation in 3 ways comapring the first quantity to the second quantity, and the correct way to do this is:

1 to 9

1:9

1/9

Part 3

Write three ratios equal to 4/36

On this case is we divide numerator and denominator by 2 we got 2/18

And if we divide the numerator and denominator by 4 we got 1/9

and if we divide the numerator and denominator by 4 and then we multiply by 3 we got 3/27

So then 3 equivalent ratios are : 2/18,1/9, 3/27

Part 4

Jake sold 36 tickets to the school fair Jeanne sold 12 tickets. What is the ratio, in simplest form, of the number of tickets Jeanne sold to the number of tickets Jake sold?

On this case would be 12/36 and if we divide numerator and denominator by 6 we got 2/6, and if we divide by 2 we got 1/3 simplified
