Explanation:

the ratio of quarts to pints is according to this table

5/10 or 6/12, which is simplified 1/2.

cups to fluid ounces

2/16 or 3/24, which is simplified 1/8.

weeks to days

8/56 or 10/70, which is simplified 1/7.

and then it is the same as for normal fractions :

1/8 is the smallest

1/7

1/2 is the largest

Answer:

3rd table, 2nd table, 1st table

Explanation:

So, the table ratios for the first at 5:10 and 6:12. Which can be simplified to 1:2, meaning 1 quart for every 2 pints.

The second table's ratios are 2:16 and 3:24. Which also can be simplified to 1:8, meaning 1 cup for every 8 fluid ounces.

The last table's ratios are 8:56 and 10:70. Which as well could be simplified to 1:7, meaning 1 week for every 7 days.

Hope this helps :)
