Answer:

The ring of fire is found in the areas of the Pacific Ocean with active Volcanoes and frequent earthquakes. The volcanoes and earthquakes are caused because of the moving tectonic plates underneath the surface of the earth. The moving tectonic plates create plates to overlap, which led to melts the rocks and becomes magma.
