Answer:

See below, please!

Explanation:

There are infinite number of ratios equivalent to 3:8 because both numbers can be multiplied by a common number or divided by a common number.

For example, 9:24 would still be equivalent to 3:8 because the common number in our case is 3. See what I mean?

Hope this helped!
