Question

Is this right?

Answer 1

If it isn't, please tell me what I did wrong and what is the right way towards the right answer?

Answer 2

i think it is a because most fractions arent supposed to have decimals in them but i could be wrong also

Answer 3

Yeah, that's right because when you divide them they are equal and therefore proportional.

Answer 4

when you divide the answer you picked they both equal the same thing

Answer 5

Definitely exactly what I just said.

Answer 6

i was correcting myself @tanner23456

Answer 7

well...let's see
1.6 is really 16/10

so, we could just use that and say
\(\bf {\color{blue}{ \cfrac{5}{2 }}},\cfrac{4}{1.6}\iff\cfrac{5}{2},\cfrac{4}{{\color{brown}{ \frac{16}{10}}}}
\\ \quad \\
\cfrac{4}{\frac{16}{10}}\implies \cfrac{\frac{4}{1}}{\frac{16}{10}}\implies
\cfrac{4}{1}\cdot \cfrac{10}{16}\implies \cfrac{\cancel{2\cdot 2}}{1}\cdot \cfrac{\cancel{2}\cdot 5}{\cancel{2\cdot 2}\cdot 2\cdot \cancel{2}}\implies {\color{blue}{ \cfrac{5}{2}}}\)

Answer 8

I thought so.
