An equivalent ratio to \( \frac{6}{24} \) can be found by simplifying the fraction or multiplying both the numerator and the denominator by the same number.
To simplify \( \frac{6}{24} \), divide both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor (GCD), which is 6:
\[ \frac{6 \div 6}{24 \div 6} = \frac{1}{4} \]
So, \( \frac{1}{4} \) is an equivalent ratio.
Alternatively, you could multiply both the numerator and the denominator by the same number. For example, if we multiply both by 2:
\[ \frac{6 \times 2}{24 \times 2} = \frac{12}{48} \]
Thus, \( \frac{12}{48} \) is another equivalent ratio.
In summary, examples of equivalent ratios to \( \frac{6}{24} \) include \( \frac{1}{4} \) and \( \frac{12}{48} \).
