The problem asks us to find a ratio that is equivalent to the ratio 7:
9. The provided options are:
1. 67:91
2. 72:95
3. 70:90
4. 67:93
2. Solution Steps
A ratio is equivalent to another if they simplify to the same fraction. In other words, is equivalent to if . We can check each option to see if its ratio is equal to 7/
9.
Option 1: . This is not obviously equal to . Since 67 is a prime number, the fraction cannot be simplified. Hence .
Option 2: . This is not obviously equal to . Since 72 and 95 do not have any common factors to cancel, the fraction cannot be simplified. Hence .
Option 3: . We can simplify this fraction by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 10:
.
Therefore, is equivalent to .
Option 4: . This is not obviously equal to . Since 67 is a prime number, the fraction cannot be simplified. Hence .
Thus, the only equivalent ratio is 70:
9
0.
3. Final Answer
70:90
