Are the ratios 1/8 and 4/32 proportional
yes, since 1/8 = 4/32
Thank you
To determine if two ratios are proportional, we can simplify both ratios and check if they are equal.
First, let's simplify the ratio 1/8:
1 ÷ 1 = 1
8 ÷ 1 = 8
So, the simplified form of 1/8 is 1/8.
Next, let's simplify the ratio 4/32:
4 ÷ 4 = 1
32 ÷ 4 = 8
Therefore, the simplified form of 4/32 is 1/8.
Since both ratios simplify to 1/8, we can conclude that the ratios 1/8 and 4/32 are proportional.
To determine if two ratios are proportional, we need to check if they have the same ratio when simplified. Let's simplify the given ratios:
1/8 = 1 ÷ 1 / 8 ÷ 1 = 1/8
4/32 = 4 ÷ 4 / 32 ÷ 4 = 1/8
After simplifying both ratios, we see that they both equal 1/8. Therefore, the ratios 1/8 and 4/32 are indeed proportional.
