Answer 1

To determine which row does not have the same ratio of galloons of lemonade to pounds of sugar, we can calculate the ratio for each row and compare them.

1. Row 1:

   • Gallons of Lemonade: 2
   • Pounds of Sugar: 40
   • Ratio: $\frac{2}{40}=\frac{1}{20}=0.05$

2. Row 2:

   • Gallons of Lemonade: 5
   • Pounds of Sugar: 100
   • Ratio: $\frac{5}{100}=\frac{1}{20}=0.05$

3. Row 3:

   • Gallons of Lemonade: 6
   • Pounds of Sugar: 135
   • Ratio: $\frac{6}{135}=\frac{2}{45}\approx 0.0444$

4. Row 4:

   • Gallons of Lemonade: 12
   • Pounds of Sugar: 240
   • Ratio: $\frac{12}{240}=\frac{1}{20}=0.05$

Now, comparing the ratios:

• Rows 1, 2, and 4 all have the same ratio of $\frac{1}{20}$ or 0.05.
• Row 3 has a different ratio of $\frac{2}{45}$ or approximately 0.0444.

Therefore, the row that does not have the same ratio as the others is c. Row 3.
