Are the ratios 84/96 and 77.88 proportional?(1 point) Responses
To determine if the ratios 84/96 and 77.88 are proportional, we need to compare their values.
The first ratio, 84/96, simplifies to 7/8.
The second ratio is 77.88.
To check if two ratios are proportional, we multiply the numerator of the first ratio by the denominator of the second ratio, and compare it to the product of the denominator of the first ratio with the numerator of the second ratio.
(7)(77.88) = 545.16
(8)(96) = 768
Since 545.16 is not equal to 768, the two ratios are not proportional.
