Which ratio can form a proportion with 6/9

12/8
8/12
10/12
8/13​

Answer 1

8/12

Explanation:

divide through by 2 6/9 = 2/3

also,

divide through by 4

8/12 = 2/3

6/9 = 8/12

Answer 2

Explanation:

6/9 divide top and bottom by 3 to get 2/3

Now reduce each of the fractions to the lowest terms, and look for one that gives 2/3.

12/8 = 3/2 (divide by 4 top and bottom)

8/12 = 2/3 (divide by 4 top and bottom) This is a solution

10/12 = 5/6 (divide by 2 top and bottom)

8/13 (cannot be reduced)

Therefore the second fraction (8/12) forms a proportion with 6/9.
