Question

What is the relationship between the ratios? 48 72 and 6 9 Drag and drop to complete the statement. The ratios are . proportionalnot proportional

Answer 1

you mean 6 9 or 69 ....

Answer 2

They are proportional.

Explanation:

The ratios are

`(48)/(72)` and
`(6)/(9)`

To demonstrate if they are proportional, both must be equivalent. So, let's find out:

`(48)/(72)=(6)/(9)`

If we simplify each fraction, we have:

`(6)/(9)=(6)/(9)\\(2)/(3)=(2)/(3)`

As you can see, both ratios are equivalent, this mean that they are proportional, and the constant of proportionality is
`(2)/(3)`.

Therefore, they are proportional.
