4) The first and second terms for both ratios need to be in the same order.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given ratio is:
16:36
In order to find any ratio equivalent to given ratio, the ratio can be divided by a number or multiplied to a number.
The equivalent ratio that is given: 72:32
If we multiply the given ratio by 2: We get 32:72
So,
Looking at the options we can conclude that the right answer is
4) The first and second terms for both ratios need to be in the same order.

Let
Present age of Sana = s
Present age of Mona = m
Sana is senior to Mona by 18 years
s=m+18............(1)
After 6 years
Sana will be = s+6
Mona will be = m+6
Then
Sana will be twice as old as Mona
(s+6)=2(m+6)
s+6=2m+12
s=2m+12-6
s=2m+6.............(2)
Put the value of s from (2) to (1)
2m+6=m+18
2m-m=18-6
m=12
Put the value of m in (1)
s=m+18
s=12+18
s=30
Present age of Sana = s = 30 years old
Present age of Mona = m = 12 years old
Based on the way these stations are connected, we can infer that there are <u>56 tubes. </u>
<h3>Number of tubes in Spaceland </h3>
Each pair of stations have 2 tubes. This means that every station is connected to each of the others.
We can therefore infer that each station has 7 tubes to the other stations.
The total number of tubes would therefore be:
= Number of stations x Number of tubes per station
= 8 x 7
= 56 tubes
In conclusion, there are 56 tubes.
