To find an equivalent ratio to 3/2, we need to simplify 3/2 and express it in the form of a fraction. One way to simplify a fraction is to divide both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor.
In this case, the greatest common divisor of 3 and 2 is 1, since there is no number greater than 1 that divides both 3 and 2 evenly.
So, dividing both 3 and 2 by 1, we get:
3/1 รท 2/1 = 3/2
Therefore, the ratio 3/2 is already in its simplest form and cannot be further simplified.
To determine which of the ratios is equivalent to 3/2, we need to simplify each option and check if any of them are equal to 3/2.
Let's simplify each option:
1. 9/6 can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 3. Simplifying, we get 3/2.
2. 2/3 cannot be further simplified.
3. 9/4 cannot be further simplified.
4. 1 is already in its simplest form.
Comparing the simplified ratios with 3/2, we see that 9/6 is equivalent to 3/2. Therefore, the ratio 9/6 is the correct answer.
