To find which of the given ratios is equivalent to 32, we need to compare each option to the number 32.

  1. For the first option \( \frac{2}{3} \):

    • To find an equivalent ratio, you can cross-multiply: \( 2 \times 32 = 64 \) and \( 3 \times 1 = 3 \), so \( \frac{2}{3} \) does not equal 32.
  2. For the second option \( \frac{9}{6} \):

    • Simplifying \( \frac{9}{6} \) gives \( \frac{3}{2} \).
    • Then to check \( \frac{3}{2} \) compared to 32, we can do cross-multiplication: \( 3 \times 32 = 96 \) and \( 2 \times 1 = 2 \), so \( \frac{9}{6} \) does not equal 32.
  3. For the third option \( 1 \):

    • Here, \( 1 \) is not equal to 32.
  4. For the fourth option \( 94 \):

    • This option is simply a number and does not represent a ratio.

Since none of the ratios provided are equivalent to 32, I recommend checking the options given to see if there are any alternatives. If these are the only options, then none of them are equivalent to 32.
