Answer 1

B

Explanation:

Equal ratios can be found by multiplying/ dividing the parts by the same value.

A

1 : 6 ( multiply both parts by 3 )

= 3 : 18 ← equal ratios

B

2 : 14 ( multiply both sides by 3 )

= 6 : 42 ≠ 3 : 42 ← ratios not equal

C

12 : 6 ( divide both parts by 6 )

= 2 : 1 ← equal ratios

D

3 : 11 ( multiply both parts by 2 )

= 6 : 22 ← equal ratios
