Question

which of the following forms a proportion of 24/18?
A.18/12
B.20/15
C.3/4
D.14/8

Answer 1

one way to do this is to reduce
\[\frac{24}{18}=\frac{4}{3}\]

Answer 2

but since none of your answers are \(\frac{4}{3}\)we can see if we can find an equivalent fraction to it

Answer 3

that is not too hard
\[\frac{4}{3}=\frac{4}{3}\times \frac{5}{5}=\frac{20}{15}\]

Answer 4

so it would be b

Answer 5

yes it would
would you like to check it is right?

Answer 6

or let me ask you this
do you know how to check it?

Answer 7

no

Answer 8

\[\frac{24}{18}=\frac{20}{15}\]you can check if
\[24\times 15=20\times 18\] or not

Answer 9

since both times you get \(360\) then the fractions must be equal
