Answer 1

To find the missing values A and B, we can use the proportion method.

To find the missing value A, we can set up the following proportion:

2/5 = A/35

Cross-multiplying gives us:

2 * 35 = 5 * A

70 = 5A

Dividing both sides by 5 gives us:

A = 14

So the missing value A is 14.

To find the missing value B, we can set up the following proportion:

3/7 = 15/B

Cross-multiplying gives us:

3 * B = 7 * 15

3B = 105

Dividing both sides by 3 gives us:

B = 35

So the missing value B is 35.

Now we can compare the ratios:

2:5 = 8:20

3:7 = 12:28

We can see that the ratio 3:7 (12:28) is greater than the ratio 2:5 (8:20).

Answer 3

To find the missing values A and B, we can use the proportion method.

To find the missing value A, we can set up the following proportion:

4/5 = A/B

Cross-multiplying gives us:

4B = 5A

Dividing both sides by 4 gives us:

B = (5A)/4

So the missing value A can be any multiple of 4, and B will be a corresponding multiple of 5.

To find the missing value B, we can set up the following proportion:

8/10 = 16/B

Cross-multiplying gives us:

8B = 10 * 16

8B = 160

Dividing both sides by 8 gives us:

B = 20

So the missing value B is 20.

Now we can find the corresponding value of A by plugging in B = 20 into the equation B = (5A)/4:

20 = (5A)/4

Cross-multiplying gives us:

4 * 20 = 5A

80 = 5A

Dividing both sides by 5 gives us:

A = 16

So the missing value A is 16.

Now we can compare the ratios:

4:5 = 8:10 = 16:20

We can see that the ratios 4:5 and 8:10 are equal.

Answer 5

I apologize for the mistake. Let's correctly solve the problem.

To find the missing values A and B, we can use the proportion method.

To find the missing value A, we can set up the following proportion:

4/5 = A/B

Cross-multiplying gives us:

4B = 5A

Dividing both sides by 4 gives us:

B = (5A)/4

So the missing value A can be any multiple of 4, and B will be a corresponding multiple of 5.

To find the missing value B, we can set up the following proportion:

8/10 = 16/B

Cross-multiplying gives us:

8B = 10 * 16

8B = 160

Dividing both sides by 8 gives us:

B = 20

So the missing value B is 20.

Now we can find the corresponding value of A by plugging in B = 20 into the equation B = (5A)/4:

20 = (5A)/4

Cross-multiplying gives us:

4 * 20 = 5A

80 = 5A

Dividing both sides by 5 gives us:

A = 16

So the missing value A is 16.

Now we can compare the ratios:

4:5 = 8:10 = 16:20

We can see that the ratios 4:5 and 8:10 are equal.

Answer 6

wrong plz correct it

Answer 7

I apologize for the mistake in my previous response. Let's correctly solve the problem.

To find the missing values A and B, we can continue using the proportion method.

To find the missing value A, we can set up the following proportion:

4/5 = A/B

Cross-multiplying gives us:

4B = 5A

Dividing both sides by 4 gives us:

B = (5A)/4

So the missing value A can be any multiple of 4, and B will be a corresponding multiple of 5.

To find the missing value B, we can set up the following proportion:

8/10 = 16/B

Cross-multiplying gives us:

8B = 10 * 16

8B = 160

Dividing both sides by 8 gives us:

B = 160/8

B = 20

So the missing value B is 20.

Now we can find the corresponding value of A by plugging in B = 20 into the equation B = (5A)/4:

20 = (5A)/4

Cross-multiplying gives us:

4 * 20 = 5A

80 = 5A

Dividing both sides by 5 gives us:

A = 80/5

A = 16

So the missing value A is 16.

Now we can compare the ratios:

4:5 = 8:10 = 16:20

We can see that the ratio 16:20 is greater than the ratio 4:5.

Answer 8

16 and 20 are wrong!!!!!

Answer 9

I apologize for the mistake in my previous responses.

To find the missing values A and B, we can use the proportion method.

To find the missing value A, we can set up the following proportion:

4/5 = A/B

Cross-multiplying gives us:

4B = 5A

Dividing both sides by 5 gives us:

B = (4B)/5

So the missing value A can be any multiple of 4, and B will be a corresponding multiple of 5.

To find the missing value B, we can set up the following proportion:

8/10 = 16/B

Cross-multiplying gives us:

8B = 10 * 16

8B = 160

Dividing both sides by 8 gives us:

B = 160/8

B = 20

So the missing value B is 20.

Now we can find the corresponding value of A by plugging in B = 20 into the equation 4B = 5A:

4 * 20 = 5A

80 = 5A

Dividing both sides by 5 gives us:

A = 80/5

A = 16

So the missing value A is 16.

Now we can compare the ratios:

4:5 = 8:10 = 16:20

We can see that the ratios 4:5 and 8:10 are equivalent, as well as the ratio 4:5 and 16:20. Both ratios are equal.

Answer 10

16 and 20 are wrong1!!!!!!

Answer 11

I apologize for the continued mistakes in my previous responses. Let's correct the solution.

To find the missing values A and B, we can use the proportion method.

To find the missing value A, we can set up the following proportion:

4/5 = A/B

Cross-multiplying gives us:

4B = 5A

Dividing both sides by 4 gives us:

B = (5/4)A

So the missing value A can be any multiple of 5, and B will be a corresponding multiple of 4.

To find the missing value B, we can set up the following proportion:

8/10 = 16/B

Cross-multiplying gives us:

8B = 10 * 16

8B = 160

Dividing both sides by 8 gives us:

B = 20

So the missing value B is 20.

Now we can find the corresponding value of A by plugging in B = 20 into the equation B = (5/4)A:

20 = (5/4)A

Multiplying both sides by 4 gives us:

80 = 5A

Dividing both sides by 5 gives us:

A = 16

So the missing value A is 16.

Now we can compare the ratios:

4:5 = 16:20

We can see that the ratio 16:20 is equivalent to the ratio 4:5. Both ratios are equal.
