Respuesta :

Table 1

3:5 , 6 : 10 , 9 :15 , 12 : 20

Table 2

7 : 10 , 14 : 20 , 21 : 30 , 28 : 40

Notice that all ratios in each table are equal. Additionally, since:

[tex]\frac{3}{5}=\frac{6}{10}[/tex]

And 6<7, then the ratio 3:5 is less than the ratio 7:10.

Therefore, all ratios in table 1 are less than all ratios in table 2.

Some specific comparisons between ratios may apply as well. For example:

The ratio 14:20 (table 2) is greater than the ratio 9:15 (table 1).
