Making a model is simple. You could use a number line or draw one out. I could help you, but I don't have a problem to work with...
Yes it is. When you simplify the girls ratio( 12:30 by 6)you'll get 2:5. When you simplify the boys ratio( 16:40 by 8)you'll get 2:5. So it is the same ratio.
I believe it is the final choice because it correctly compares 2 sets of corresponding sides.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The above-listed answer choices are the only ones that are self-consistent.
The quotient choices all have a leading coefficient of 3, and the result of dividing by <some number> is a leading coefficient of 1. Obviously, the <some number> must be 3 (first choice on the second menu).
Looking only at the constant term, we see that after division by 3, we have 3. So the original quotient constant term must be 3×3 = 9 (first choice on the first menu). Note that we have chosen the correct answer simply by looking at coefficients, not even bothering with actual division of variables.
