Hope this helps ya, REEEEE

I apologize, but the correct answer is (C) 1/9, 2/18, 3/27. These ratios are equivalent to 5/40.
To find three ratios equal to 5/40, we need to find ratios that have the same value when simplified.
One way to find ratios equal to 5/40 is to simplify the fraction further. We can divide both the numerator and the denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 5.
Dividing 5 by 5 gives us 1, and dividing 40 by 5 gives us 8. Therefore, the simplified fraction is 1/8.
To find two more ratios equal to 5/40, we can multiply both the numerator and the denominator by the same non-zero number. Let's multiply by 2:
1/8 * 2 = 2/16
And again, by 3:
1/8 * 3 = 3/24
So, the three ratios equal to 5/40 are 1/8, 2/16, and 3/24.
Therefore, the correct answer is option B, which includes these three ratios.
