Get it right please.

A zoologist recorded the speed of two cheetahs. Cheetah A ran 17 miles in 8 minutes. Cheetah B ran 56 miles in 20 minutes. Which statement is correct?

Cheetah A has a higher ratio of miles per minute than Cheetah B because 17 over 8 is less than 56 over 20.
Cheetah B has a higher ratio of miles per minute than Cheetah A because 17 over 8 is greater than 56 over 20.
Cheetah B has a higher ratio of miles per minute than Cheetah A because 17 over 8 is less than 56 over 20.
Both cheetahs have the same ratio of miles per minute.
