To determine which of the tables follow a ratio, we need to analyze the relationships between the values in each column. A table follows a ratio if the values in one column are proportional to the values in the other column.

Let's analyze each table:

  1. Table 1:

    A	B
    1	4
    2	5
    3	7
    
    • Ratios: (1/4), (2/5), (3/7) - Not proportional.
  2. Table 2:

    A	B
    1	2
    2	4
    3	6
    
    • Ratios: (1/2), (2/4), (3/6) - All simplify to the same ratio of 1:2. This table follows a ratio.
  3. Table 3:

    A	B
    1	5
    2	6
    3	7
    
    • Ratios: (1/5), (2/6), (3/7) - Not proportional.
  4. Table 4:

    A	B
    1	1
    2	4
    3	9
    
    • Ratios: (1/1), (2/4), (3/9) - Not proportional.

Conclusion: The only table that follows a ratio is Table 2.
