Dan bought 8 shirts and 3 pants. This means that the ratio representing the number of shirts to the number of pants that Dan bought is 8/3 = 2.67
Devonte bought 12 shirts and 5 pants. This means that the ratio representing the number of shirts to the number of pants that Devonte bought is 12/5 = 2.4
Therefore, they are not equivalent ratios because the relationship is not exactly the same.
The mean is the sum of a set of numbers divided by the number of numbers in a set. In this case, you add up all the numbers to get 56, and divide by 7 to get 8.
