Answer:

The answer would be A: 15/24

Explanation:

When finding an equivalent ratio you find common factors for example whatever you do/ has been done to the first part of the ratio must be done the the second part of it. In this case you can tell 5 and 8 have been multiplied by 3.


Hope this helps!

Make sure to take notes , study and practice so you can learn!

Answer: 15 / 24

Explanation:

hello!! the answer is 15/24 because if you multiply 5 by 3 you get 15, wnd if you also multiply 8 by 3 you get 24!! an equal ratio will always have the numerator and denominator multiplied by the same number :) I hope this can help!

feel free to comment if you need more help :) love the raiden shogun pfp too!
