Which pair of ratios form a proportion? A. 2 : 3 and 3 : 4 B. 8 : 12 and 16 : 20 C. 4 : 7 and 12 : 21 D. 9 : 15 and 10 : 16

Sagot :

C.
You can simplify 12:21 to 4:7 by dividing 12 by 3 to get 4 and by dividing 21 by 3 to get 7.  Because dividing both those numbers in the one ratio by 3 gives you the other ratio, they are a proportion.
