Question

Select all ratios equivalent to 8:4

4:2. 14:7. 5:10

Answer 1

They are all equivalent except for 5:10

Explanation:

You can write ratios as fractions

`\frac{8}4}`
`(4)/(2)`
`(14)/(7)`
`(5)/(10)` If I simplify each fraction, I can see that they all equal 2 expect for the the last one.

2 2 2 1/2

Answer 2

4:2 and 14:7

Explanation:

The ratios equivalent to 8:4 would be:

4:2

14:7

5:10 wouldn't be equivalent because if you simplify that, it is 1/2 and if you simplify 8/4, it is 2. 1/2 and 2 are not the same.
