To find the ratio of Option A based on the points given, we examine the first point: (12, 5).
This means for 12 oranges, the value is 5 dollars. Thus, we can express the ratio of oranges to dollars as:
12 oranges : 5 dollars
Therefore, the ratio is best expressed as:
12 oranges for every 5 dollars.
So the correct response is:
12 oranges for every 5 dollars.
