So the ratio of boys to girls is 12:24.. now, is that an equivalent ratio as 2 boys for 4 girls? or 2:4? let's see.
you could start simplifying the 12/24 fraction by dividing by some common multiple, say 2, and get 6/12, then divide by 3 and get 2/4 and stop there.
then you'll notice that 12/24 is really 2/4 in disguise.

Answer:
Yumiko should multiply the other equation by 3.
If she adds the two equations she would be left with the variable 'x'.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the two equations are as follows:
It is given that she multiplies the first equation by 6. Therefore, (1) becomes
Now, note that the sign of the variable 'y' is negative. So, if we make the co-effecient of 'y' equal in both the cases, add them it would result in the elimination of the variable 'y'.
The co-effecient of y in Equation (2) is 6. To make it 18 like it is in Equation (1), we multiply throughout by 3.
Therefore, Equation (2) becomes:
Now, we add Equation (a) and Equation (b).
Factor: 3
Equation: 27x = 126
