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

  1. Row 1: 2 gallons to 30 cups

    • Ratio: 30 / 2 = 15

  2. Row 2: 5 gallons to 85 cups

    • Ratio: 85 / 5 = 17

  3. Row 3: 9 gallons to 135 cups

    • Ratio: 135 / 9 = 15

  4. Row 4: 12 gallons to 180 cups

    • Ratio: 180 / 12 = 15

Now, let's summarize these ratios:

  • Row 1: 15
  • Row 2: 17
  • Row 3: 15
  • Row 4: 15

From this analysis, we can see that Row 2 has a different ratio (17) compared to the other rows (15). Therefore, the row that does not have the same ratio as the others is:

Row 2.
