Answer:

Both ratios are not equal.

Explanation:

We have been that 4 hours worked for $12 and 7 hrs worked for $28. We are asked to determine whether the pair of ratios are equal.

First of all, we will find the ratio between 1st pair as:


(\$12)/(4)=(\$3)/(1)

Now, let us find ratio between 2nd pair as:


(\$28)/(7)=(\$4)/(1)

Since 1st pair of a ratio of 3 to 1 and 2nd pair has a ratio of 4 to 1, therefore, both ratios are not equal.
