Explanation:

3 : 8

x 4 x4

= 12 : 32

or

$\frac{3}{8} \times \frac{4}{4} = \frac{12}{32}$

It can be written two ways; 3:8 or 12:32. Equivalent ratios (or equivalent fractions) are two ratios that express the same relationship between numbers. We can create equivalent ratios by multiplying or dividing both the numerator and denominator of a given ratio by the same number.
