1. Problem Description

The problem asks to select all ratios that are equivalent to the ratio 15:2515:25. The options are 45:7545:75, 6:106:10, and 9:159:15.

2. Solution Steps

To find equivalent ratios, we can simplify the given ratio 15:2515:25 by dividing both numbers by their greatest common divisor (GCD). The GCD of 15 and 25 is

5. $15/5 = 3$ and $25/5 = 5$.

So, the simplified ratio is 3:53:5.
Now, we will simplify each of the given ratios and check if they are equivalent to 3:53:5.
* Ratio 45:7545:75
The GCD of 45 and 75 is
1

5. $45/15 = 3$ and $75/15 = 5$.

So, 45:7545:75 simplifies to 3:53:5. Thus, 45:7545:75 is equivalent to 15:2515:25.
* Ratio 6:106:10
The GCD of 6 and 10 is

2. $6/2 = 3$ and $10/2 = 5$.

So, 6:106:10 simplifies to 3:53:5. Thus, 6:106:10 is equivalent to 15:2515:25.
* Ratio 9:159:15
The GCD of 9 and 15 is

3. $9/3 = 3$ and $15/3 = 5$.

So, 9:159:15 simplifies to 3:53:5. Thus, 9:159:15 is equivalent to 15:2515:25.

3. Final Answer

All three ratios are equivalent to 15:2515:25. The ratios are 45:7545:75, 6:106:10, and 9:159:15.
