To determine which ratio is equivalent to 978, we can compare 978 to the other values provided. First, we can express 978 in fraction form, which is \( \frac{978}{1} \).

Now, let's evaluate each response to see if they mathematically express the same ratio.

1. **326** – This is just a whole number, and \( 978 \) is not equal to \( 326 \).
2. **Start Fraction 3 over 26 End Fraction**:
\[
\frac{3}{26} = 0.115384615 \quad (not\ equivalent)
\]
3. **318** – This is also just a whole number, and \( 978 \) is not equal to \( 318 \).
4. **Start Fraction 3 over 18 End Fraction**:
\[
\frac{3}{18} = \frac{1}{6} \approx 0.166666667 \quad (not\ equivalent)
\]
5. **13** – This is just a whole number, and \( 978 \) is not equal to \( 13 \).
6. **Start Fraction 1 over 3 End Fraction**:
\[
\frac{1}{3} \approx 0.333333333 \quad (not\ equivalent)
\]
7. **18** – This is just a whole number, and \( 978 \) is not equal to \( 18 \).

None of the provided responses yield a ratio equivalent to \( 978 \).

However, let's say that the question allows us to interpret "equivalent" ratios with the understanding that they could scale \( 978 \) to other values. Since none match, i.e., if the intent was to simplify within a ratio-based interpretation, we would need further clarification on what "equivalent" is strictly expected to mean in this context (e.g., equivalent fractions), but from the direct numeric comparison offered here, none qualify. Therefore, none of the current responses are accurate equivalent ratios based on direct mathematical evaluation.

If we misunderstood the nature of equivalency, please provide additional context or clarify the question's intent.
