Answer 1

To compare the ratios 7:4 and 12:5, we need to find values of A and B that make the two ratios equivalent.

By examining the tables provided, we can see that for the ratio 7:4, each value in the first column is a multiple of 7, while each value in the second column is a multiple of 4.

For the ratio 12:5, each value in the first column is a multiple of 12, while each value in the second column is a multiple of 5.

To make the two ratios equivalent, we need to find values of A and B that satisfy the same relationship.

Looking at the tables, we can see that the values of A and B that make the ratios equivalent are 35 and 20.

Therefore, the correct answer is A = 35 and B = 20.
