Answer:
We get the equivalent ratios as,
(18/45) = (16/40) = (24/60)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let say the 1st box has the value x and 2nd box has the value y
Thus,
(x/45) = (16/40) = (24/y)
Now,
Taking the first 2 ratios,
(x/45) = (16/40)
Cross multiplying we get
40 × x = 45 × 16
40x = 45 × 16
x = (45 × 16)/40
x = 18
Similarly,
Taking second 2 ratios
(16/40) = (24/y)
Cross multiplying we get
16 × y = 24 × 40
16y = (24 × 40)
y = (24 × 40)/16
y = 60
Hence,
we get the equivalent ratios as,
(18/45) = (16/40) = (24/60)
Hope it helped and believing you understood it........All the best
