OpenStudy (yolo_king):

OpenStudy (studybird123):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{ 11 }{ 36 }=\frac{ 121 }{ 180 }\]\[11\times180=1980\]\[36\times121=4356\]

OpenStudy (studybird123):

OpenStudy (yolo_king):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A is NOT correct. The two ratios need to be PROPORTIONATE, meaning EQUAL.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'll tell you the real answer in a second.

OpenStudy (yolo_king):

OpenStudy (yolo_king):

Its B then

OpenStudy (anonymous):

B,\[\frac{ 13 }{ 21 }=\frac{ 39 }{ 63 }\]\[13\times63=819\]\[21\times39=819\]-------------- So yes, B is correct.
