Question

In the art club, there are 2 seventh graders for every 3 eighth graders. At

this year's art fair, there were 7 paintings by seventh graders for every 12
paintings by eighth graders. Is the ratio of seventh graders to eighth
graders in the art club equivalent to the ratio of paintings by seventh
graders to paintings by eighth graders? *

Answer 1

no

Explanation:

2/3 does not equal 7/12.

there would need to be 8 paintings by seventh graders for every 12 by eighth graders in order to have an equivalent ratio.
