1. Problem Description

The problem asks us to choose all the ratios that are equivalent to the ratio 6:126:12 from a given list of ratios.

2. Solution Steps

To determine if a ratio is equivalent to 6:126:12, we can simplify the given ratio and compare it to the simplified form of 6:126:12. First, we simplify 6:126:12 by dividing both sides by their greatest common divisor, which is

6. $$6:12 = \frac{6}{6} : \frac{12}{6} = 1:2$$

So, we need to check which of the given ratios simplify to 1:21:2.
* 4:10=42:102=2:54:10 = \frac{4}{2} : \frac{10}{2} = 2:5. This is not equal to 1:21:2.
* 5:115:11. This is already in its simplest form and is not equal to 1:21:2.
* 1:21:2. This is equal to 1:21:2.
* 18:36=1818:3618=1:218:36 = \frac{18}{18} : \frac{36}{18} = 1:2. This is equal to 1:21:2.
* 24:48=2424:4824=1:224:48 = \frac{24}{24} : \frac{48}{24} = 1:2. This is equal to 1:21:2.

3. Final Answer

The ratios equivalent to 6:126:12 are 1:21:2, 18:3618:36, and 24:4824:48.
