To compare the ratios \( \frac{2}{5} \) and \( \frac{3}{4} \), we can look for matching pairs that represent these ratios in the tables provided.

  1. For the ratio \( \frac{2}{5} \): This can be represented by the pairs:

    • (2, 5)
    • (4, 10)
    • (6, 15)
    • (8, 20)
    • (10, 25)
  2. For the ratio \( \frac{3}{4} \): This can be represented by the pairs:

    • (3, 4)
    • (6, 8)
    • (9, 12)
    • (12, 16)
    • (15, 20)

To effectively compare the two ratios, the table must contain both sets of pairs listed above.

Upon reviewing the provided options:

  1. The first option contains:

    • (2, 5), (4, 10) for \( \frac{2}{5} \)
    • (3, 4), (6, 8) for \( \frac{3}{4} \)

    Thus, this option is valid for comparison.

  2. The second option contains:

    • (2, 5), (6, 15) for \( \frac{2}{5} \)
    • (3, 4), (9, 12) for \( \frac{3}{4} \)

    This option is also valid.

  3. The third option contains:

    • (2, 5), (4, 10) for \( \frac{2}{5} \)
    • (3, 4), (6, 8) for \( \frac{3}{4} \)

    This option is valid too.

  4. The fourth option contains:

    • (2, 5), (3, 10), and others for \( \frac{2}{5} \)
    • (3, 4), (4, 8), and others for \( \frac{3}{4} \)

    This option contains incorrect representations (3, 10 does not represent \( \frac{2}{5} \)), therefore it is not valid for comparison.

The options that can be used to compare the ratios \( \frac{2}{5} \) and \( \frac{3}{4} \) are the first, second, and third options.
