To find the number of frogs that the pet store has when they have 60 fish, we need to observe the relationship between the number of fish and the number of frogs in the chart.
Looking at the chart, we can see that for every 5 fish, there is an increase of 1 frog.
Since the pet store has 60 fish, we can divide 60 by 5 to find out how many groups of 5 fish there are.
60 รท 5 = 12
Therefore, there are 12 groups of 5 fish.
For each group of 5 fish, there is 1 frog.
So, there will be 12 frogs.
Therefore, the pet store has 12 frogs when they have 60 fish.
The correct answer is option C: 1212.
