Answer 1

To determine which of the tables follow a ratio, we need to analyze the relationships between the values in each column. A table follows a ratio if the values in one column are proportional to the values in the other column.

Let's analyze each table:

1. **Table 1:**
```
A B
1 4
2 5
3 7
```
- Ratios: (1/4), (2/5), (3/7) - Not proportional.

2. **Table 2:**
```
A B
1 2
2 4
3 6
```
- Ratios: (1/2), (2/4), (3/6) - All simplify to the same ratio of 1:2. **This table follows a ratio.**

3. **Table 3:**
```
A B
1 5
2 6
3 7
```
- Ratios: (1/5), (2/6), (3/7) - Not proportional.

4. **Table 4:**
```
A B
1 1
2 4
3 9
```
- Ratios: (1/1), (2/4), (3/9) - Not proportional.

**Conclusion:** The only table that follows a ratio is **Table 2**.
