The correct proportion that describes the relative amounts of each color is: Start Fraction 15 over 45 End Fraction equals Start Fraction 30 over 90 End Fraction.
To determine the correct proportion that describes the relative amounts of each color, we need to compare the number of red blocks to the number of green blocks in each group.
The first group has 15 red blocks and 45 green blocks, while the second group has 30 red blocks and 90 green blocks.
To express this as a proportion, we can write:
Start Fraction 15 over 45 End Fraction equals Start Fraction 30 over 90 End Fraction
This means that the ratio of red to green blocks in the first group is equal to the ratio of red to green blocks in the second group.
