I can confirm that Savage is 100% correct
its anti-savage. shorten it to anti or something but saying savage is ironic.
too ironic to let slide even tho u posted this in march and its april rn.
18 / 2 = 9
54 / 6 = 9
Answer c
thanks sorry to get back to you so lately =)
Well, let's see here. The given ratio is 18/2. To find the ratio that is proportional to this, we need to find a ratio where the numerator and denominator are each multiplied by the same factor.
For option a, 48/6, if we multiply both the numerator and denominator by 3, we get 144/18, which is not the same as 18/2, so option a is not proportional.
For option b, 24/4, if we multiply the numerator and denominator by 3, we get 72/12, which is also not the same ratio as 18/2, so option b is not proportional either.
For option c, 54/6, if we divide the numerator and denominator by 3, we get 18/2, which is indeed the same as the given ratio. So, it looks like option c is proportional!
So, the answer is c=54/6.
To determine which of the given ratios is proportional to the ratio 18/2, we need to simplify each of the given ratios and see if it is equal to 18/2.
Let's simplify each ratio:
a) 48/6 = 8/1
b) 24/4 = 6/1
c) 54/6 = 9/1
d) 3/27 = 1/9
Now let's compare each simplified ratio to 18/2:
a) 8/1 ≠ 18/2
b) 6/1 = 18/2
c) 9/1 ≠ 18/2
d) 1/9 ≠ 18/2
As we can see, the only ratio that is proportional to 18/2 is ratio b) 24/4. Therefore, the correct answer is b).
