Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Here, we want to find other values that are the same as the given scale ratio

What we have to do is just to find values that would have a ratio of 2:3 when reduced

We can have 2:3 as 4:6

Also, we can have it as 8:12

So in the scale ratio part, we can fill in 4:6 and 8:12

b) For the area ratio

We know that, area is the square of the initial length dimension

Thus, we can have:


√(50)\text{ : }√(72)

We can also have:

c) For the volume ratio

Volume is simply the cube of the linear dimension

Thus, we can have:


3:4\text{ and 9:16}
