If 2 buses are needed to transport 75 students to the aquarium and 8 buses can transport 300 students to the aquarium, which proportion describes the relationship between the number of buses and the number of students? (Do not reduce the ratios to their lowest terms.)(1 point)
Responses
275 = 8300
Start Fraction 2 over 75 End Fraction equals Start Fraction 8 over 300 End Fraction
275 ≠ 8300
Start Fraction 2 over 75 End Fraction is not equal to Start Fraction 8 over 300 End Fraction
752 = 8300
Start Fraction 75 over 2 End Fraction equals Start Fraction 8 over 300 End Fraction
275 = 3008
Start Fraction 2 over 75 End Fraction equals Start Fraction 8 over 300 End Fraction
Start Fraction 2 over 75 End Fraction equals Start Fraction 8 over 300 End Fraction
To determine the correct proportion that describes the relationship between the number of buses and the number of students, we need to compare the number of buses to the number of students.
Given that 2 buses are needed to transport 75 students and 8 buses can transport 300 students, the correct proportion can be written as:
Start Fraction 2 over 75 End Fraction equals Start Fraction 8 over 300 End Fraction
Therefore, the correct answer is:
Start Fraction 2 over 75 End Fraction equals Start Fraction 8 over 300 End Fraction.
