Question

Dale says the ratios 3:5 and 2:10 are equivalent. Is he correct?

Answer 1

Dale says the ratios 3:5 and 2:10 are equivalent.

He is wrong.

Let's compare the two ratios by converting them into the new forms which have the same denominator.

3/5 = 6/10

2/10 = 2/10

6/10 > 2/10 => 3/5 > 2/10

Hope this helps!
