Answer:
As we can see our our ration in Area B and Area D gives the same answer, so they are in proportion
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that
Rachel traveled to 5 areas to find number of Buckeye and Monarch butterflies.
Areas Rachel Traveled to = A, B, C, D, E
The table given below shows her findings.
Area Buckeye Monarch
A 15 16
B 27 36
C 12 25
D 24 32
E 44 33
Now lets find the ratio of Buckeye and Monarch Butterflies in these areas
Area A
Buckeye : Monarch = 15:16 = 0.9375
Area B
Buckeye : Monarch = 27:36 = 0.75
Area C
Buckeye : Monarch = 12:25= 0.48
Area D
Buckeye : Monarch = 24:32 = 0.75
Area E
Buckeye : Monarch = 44:33 = 1.334
As we know that if two ratios give same answer after solving the fraction then these ratios are in proportion.
As we can see our our ration in Area B and Area D gives the same answer, so they are in proportion.
