You're incorrect @jennybaeeee @heather_theginger
OpenStudy (texaschic101):
6:9 and 9:12
they can be written as 6/9 and 9/12....one thing to remember is that proportions are nothing but equivalent fractions.
6/9 and 9/12 are not equivalent and therefore, not proportional
OpenStudy (studygurl14):
You have to view them as fractions. Using common denominators, you cannot make these fractions identical, meaning they are not proportional
Plus..what @texaschic101 said. :)
OpenStudy (rainbow_rocks03):
so the answer is B ?
