OpenStudy (isaidavila):

I would say is 8 to 4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

definity not c or d

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thanks, I need proof that its the right one though.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So either A. or B.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What do you think?

OpenStudy (isaidavila):

A/B=4/3 B/C=6/4 But look at B in the fir ratio , he has 3 but in the second ve has 6 so multiply numerator and denominator( of the first) by 2 so we get A/B=8/6 B/C=6/4 So A/C=8/4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you soooooo much!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

could I ask you a few more?

OpenStudy (isaidavila):

Yeah

OpenStudy (anonymous):
