Answer:

The ratio that is equivalent to 7/1 is C, 35/5

Explanation:

For 35/5, divide each number by 5.

35 / 5 = 7,

5 / 5 = 1.

35 / 5 = 7/1 or 7:1.

B is incorrect since the numerator is not 7 times larger than the denominator.

A is incorrect, the denominator is 7 times larger, if you divide each number by 5, you actually get 1/7 or 1:7.

Therefore, C is your correct answer.

\text{Hey there!}


\text{Choose the ratio that is equivalent to this one: }(7)/(1)


\text{Well, }(7)/(1)\text{ is equal to }7/1\text{ which is equal to 7}


\text{So, go through all of your answer choices to see if it is equivalent to 7}


\text{It CAN'T be option A because }(5)/(35) \text{ is equal to }(1)/(7)


\text{It CAN'T be option B because }(12)/(6)\text{ because that equals to }(2)/(1)


\text{It CAN be }(35)/(5)\text{ because it is equal to }(7)/(1)


\boxed{{\bf{Thus, your\ answer\ should\  mostly\ be: C.\ (35)/(5)}}}}\checkmark


\text{Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!}
