We have that a loaf of sandwich bread contains 24 slices, then we have that the ratio must be constant between the loaves and the slices. If we have 1 loaf: 24 slices, this ratio must be equal in the table.

Therefore, we have that the only table that follows this is the table that has:

If we have:

2/48 = 1/24

3/72 = 1/24

4/96 = 1/24

The ratio of loaves to slices is the same, that is, 1 / 24.
