Answer:

a) 30/24

Explanation:

To work this out, we must simplify all the other fraction to see which one leaves us with 5/4. Hence:

a) 30/24

= 5/4 ← dividing both numbers by the highest common factor, 6

b) 30/20

= 3/2 ← dividing both numbers by the highest common factor, 10

c) 24/30

= 4/5 ← dividing both numbers by the highest common factor, 6

d) 20/30

= 2/3 ← dividing both numbers by the highest common factor, 10

Hence, we can see that a) is the correct answer, as when simplified it equates to 5/4, same as the original ratio. Hope that helps!
