Answer 2

Answer:

2:1

1:3

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Cubes

GREEN  - 3

BLUE  - 9

YELLOW - 4

ORANGE - 8

ratio of orange to yellow cubes  = 8/4 = 2/1  = 2:1

ratio of green to blue cubes  = 3/9 = 1/3 = 1:3

different ratios can be formed  = 4 * 3 = 12

GB  - 3/9 = 1:3

GY - 3:4

GO - 3:8

BG - 9:3 = 3:1

BY - 9:4

GO - 9:8

YG  - 4:3

YB - 4:9

YO - 4 : 8 = 1:2

OG - 8:3

OB - 8:9

OY - 8:4 = 2:1
