B will work very nicely. Just multiply 10/10 by 7/2 and you will get 70/20.

Answer: Option 'B' is correct.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

The ratio forms a proportion with
(7)/(2)

By finding a common multiplier

A)
(35)/(8) can't be written as
(7)/(2)

C)
(28)/(10)=(14)/(5) can't be written as
(7)/(2)

D)
(70)/(8)=(35)/(4) can't be written as
(7)/(2)

But,

B )
(70)/(20)=(7)/(2) is correct .

Hence, Option 'B' is correct.
