Each year, Kipp raises money by participating in the Walk for Breast Cancer. Last year, Mr. Madrid walked at a pace of 12 miles

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

A.

The rate is 12:2

B.

Set up a proportion:

12/2 = x/5

Multiply 5 to both sides:

60/2 = x

Divide:

30 = x

So he will walk 30 miles in 5 hours.

C.

To find out, we can divide 12 / 2.

12 / 2 = 6 miles per hour

Answer:

Option A: 6 to 9 , 9/12 is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equivalent ratios simplify to same simple ratio.

In case of this question, we have to check which to the ratios doesn't simplify to 3:4 or 3/4

Option A:

6 to 9 , 9/12

6 to 9 can be written as:

$=\frac{6}{9}\\= \frac{2}{3} \neq \frac{3}{4}$

9/12 simplifies to 3/4

But as one of the ratio doesn't simplify to 3:4 which means 6 to 9 is not equivalent to 3:4

Hence,

Option A: 6 to 9 , 9/12 is the correct answer.
