Answer:

12

Explanation:

This is because to get 9 to 27 you have to multiply 9 by 3, therefore you have to multiply 4 by 3 due to the fact what you do to one side you have to do to the other to make it all equal:

9 x 3 = 27

4 x 3 = 12

ratio- 9 : 4 = 27 : 12

have a nice night! Hope this helped
