To determine which row does not have the same ratio of gallons to cups, we can calculate the ratio for each row.

  • Row 1: 2 gallons = 32 cups ⇒ Ratio = 32 / 2 = 16
  • Row 2: 5 gallons = 80 cups ⇒ Ratio = 80 / 5 = 16
  • Row 3: 9 gallons = 134 cups ⇒ Ratio = 134 / 9 ≈ 14.89
  • Row 4: 12 gallons = 192 cups ⇒ Ratio = 192 / 12 = 16

Now we can see the ratios:

  • Row 1: 16
  • Row 2: 16
  • Row 3: ≈ 14.89
  • Row 4: 16

The row that does not have the same ratio is Row 3.
