Answer:

possible answers include 1:6 and 4:24

Explanation:

think of ratios like fractions. you can simplify a fraction by dividing each number by the same factor. 2/12 = 1/6 because you divide the top and bottom by 2. now, you need ANOTHER response. if you can divide the top and bottom you can also multiply. 2/12 now multiply 2 and 12 by 2 and you get 4/24.
