Question

Select all the equivalent ratios of 8:12... 7:21 20:30 5:15 2:3 16:24 and 1:3

Answer 1

8:12 is 2/3 and so is 16:24, 2:3, and 20:30

Explanation:

For example (includes simplified problem solving),

8 ÷ 4 = 2

12 ÷ 4 =3

You would want to divide the numerator and denominator by the greatest common factor (GCF)

The ratio 8:12 can be reduced to its lowest terms by dividing both terms by the GCF

Therefore 8:12 is 2:3
