1. Problem Description

The problem asks us to select all ratios that are equivalent to the ratio 3:123:12. The options are 12:4812:48, 2:82:8, and 5:205:20.

2. Solution Steps

First, simplify the given ratio 3:123:12.
Divide both sides by their greatest common divisor, which is

3. $\frac{3}{3} : \frac{12}{3} = 1:4$

So, the simplified ratio is 1:41:4.
Now, check each option:
Option 1: 12:4812:48.
Simplify the ratio 12:4812:48 by dividing both sides by
1

2. $\frac{12}{12} : \frac{48}{12} = 1:4$

Therefore, 12:4812:48 is equivalent to 1:41:4.
Option 2: 2:82:8.
Simplify the ratio 2:82:8 by dividing both sides by

2. $\frac{2}{2} : \frac{8}{2} = 1:4$

Therefore, 2:82:8 is equivalent to 1:41:4.
Option 3: 5:205:20.
Simplify the ratio 5:205:20 by dividing both sides by

5. $\frac{5}{5} : \frac{20}{5} = 1:4$

Therefore, 5:205:20 is equivalent to 1:41:4.

3. Final Answer

All three ratios, 12:4812:48, 2:82:8, and 5:205:20, are equivalent to 3:123:12.
