To find out how many free throws Larry can make in 15 minutes, we need to determine the ratio of the number of free throws to the time.
We already have the ratio for 3 minutes: 4 free throws.
To find the ratio for 15 minutes, we can multiply both the time and number of free throws by 5, since 15 is 5 times greater than 3.
So the ratio for 15 minutes is 20 free throws.
Therefore, Larry can make 20 free throws in 15 minutes.
To divide and prove each ratio is equivalent, you need to perform the following calculations:
20 ÷ 10 = 2
40 ÷ 20 = 2
60 ÷ 30 = 2
80 ÷ 40 = 2
Therefore, the answers are:
20÷10 = 2
40÷20 = 2
60÷30 = 2
80÷40 = 2

To answer this question, we need to divide the second term of each ratio by the first term. Let's go through each calculation:
20 ÷ 10 = 2
40 ÷ 20 = 2
60 ÷ 30 = 2
80 ÷ 40 = 2
Therefore, each ratio is equivalent because the result of each division is 2.
