MS. SUE HELP!!!!!!!!
What number completes the table of equivalent ratios?
x y
18 24
24 32
30 40
48 ___
A. 62
B. 64
C. 68
i need help. i think the answer is A but im not sure
Yes, 64
These the answers in the USA test prep 6th grade Video results. (I know there are a lot of B's but these are the correct answers :D!)
1. B (18:54)
2. B (3:5)
3. B (64)
Is it B?
As you can see from 30/40, the ratios are all 3:4 = 3/4
A is not correct.
3/4 = 48/x
Cross multiply and solve for x.
THANK YOU MS.SUE! I APPRECIATE IT!
You're welcome, Aubrey.

But thank you for helping me understand this more! I got it wrong the first time, but its allowing me to do it again! :D
To find the missing number in the table of equivalent ratios, we need to determine the relationship between x and y. To do this, we can calculate the ratio of y to x for each pair of values given.
For the first pair of values (18 and 24), the ratio of y to x is 24/18 = 4/3.
For the second pair of values (24 and 32), the ratio of y to x is 32/24 = 4/3.
For the third pair of values (30 and 40), the ratio of y to x is 40/30 = 4/3.
From these calculations, we can see that the ratio of y to x remains constant at 4/3 for each pair of values. Now, we can use this information to find the missing number.
To find the missing number, we need to find a number that has the same ratio of 4/3 with its corresponding x-value of 48. We can set up a proportion to solve for the missing number:
x/48 = 4/3
To find x, we can cross-multiply and solve for x:
3x = 48 * 4
3x = 192
x = 192/3
x = 64
Therefore, the missing number in the table is 64, which corresponds to option B.
