A ratio is comparing one thing to another (numbers in this case). You can write ratios in many ways
here’s three different ways.
There are four girls and and 2 boys.
The ratio of girls to boys is:
4:2
4 to 2
4/2

*THE RATIO MUST ALWAYS BE IN ORDER!!! If boys come first in the problem WRITE THE BOYS NUMBER FIRST! If girls come first, WRITE THE GIRLS FIRST IN THE RATIO!!! (That’s a very common mistake) hope this helps!

Answer:

B. is your answer

Step-by-step explanation:

First you multiply both sides by "x" and you get

12x - 4 = 3x

now add 4 to both sides and you get

12x = 3x + 4

now subtract "3x" from both sides and you get

9x = 4

divide both sides by 9 and you get

x = 4/9

GREYUIT [131]

let's firstly conver the mixed fractions to improper fractions and then get their product.

$\stackrel{mixed}{4\frac{1}{2}}\implies \cfrac{4\cdot 2+1}{2}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{9}{2}} ~\hfill \stackrel{mixed}{2\frac{1}{2}}\implies \cfrac{2\cdot 2+1}{2}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{5}{2}} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \cfrac{9}{2}\cdot \cfrac{5}{2}\cdot 6\implies \cfrac{270}{2}\implies 135$
