Answer 1

9: 16 for 9 to 16; is the simplest form for 9/16 cuz nothing can go into 9 and 16

5 : 6 for 10 to 12; cuz 10 divided by 2 is 5 and 12 divided by 2 is 6!

5: 4 for 20 to 16; cuz 20 divded by 4 is 5 and 16 divded by 4 is 4

lastly is 2:3 for 24 to 36; why? well it's ciz 24 divided by 12 is 2 and 36 divedde by 12 is 3
