To determine the equivalent expressions for the given expression which is 3ab:27ab = 1:9 , we can simplify the choices and see whether they are equal with the original.
1:9 = 1:9 EQUAL
9a:81a = 1:9 EQUAL
a:b NOT EQUAL
a:3b NOT EQUAL
2:18 = 1:9 EQUAL
3b:27a = NOT EQUAL
1:9 = 1:9 EQUAL
9a:81a = 1:9 EQUAL
a:b NOT EQUAL
a:3b NOT EQUAL
2:18 = 1:9 EQUAL
3b:27a = NOT EQUAL
Answer:
1:9, 9a:81a and 2:18
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given the ratio 3ab:27ab.
We can write the ratio a:b in fraction form as [tex]\frac{a}{b}[/tex]
So, the given ratio can be written as
[tex]\frac{3ab}{27ab}[/tex]
Now, 27 can be written as 27 =3 × 9
[tex]\frac{3ab}{3\times9ab}[/tex]
Now, cancel the common terms in numerator and denominator.
[tex]\frac{1}{9}[/tex]
We can write this in ratio form as 1:9
Now, we'll see the equivalent ratio of 1:9 from the given options.
9a:81a = 1:9
2:18 = 1:9
Therefore, the correct options are
1:9, 9a:81a and 2:18
