\begin{gathered} \text{ She sold 4 of 32, sothe initial ratio is } \\ 4\colon32,or_{} \\ (4)/(32) \\ \text{But we kno that} \\ (4)/(32)=(8)/(64) \\ \\ \text{and simplifyng,} \\ (4)/(32)=(2)/(16) \\ \\ \\ \text{ Or, dividying the expression 4:32 by 4, we get} \\ 1\colon8 \\ \\ \text{Thus another equivalent ratios are} \\ 1\colon8 \\ (2)/(16) \\ (8)/(64) \end{gathered}
