Question

Are the two ratios relationships below equivalent? Choose YES or NO, then, explain why or why not on your paper.

3 pink balls to 21 green balls 6 pink balls to 36 green balls

Group of answer choices

Yes

No

Answer 1

NO

Explanation:

Since ratios can be written as fractions, write them as fractions and reduce. Then compare the reduced fractions.

3/21 = 1/7

6/36 = 1/6

Since 1/7 and 1/6 are not equal, the ratios are not equivalent.
