Which proportion correctly shows the equivalence of two fractions? 

      A. 32⁄116 = 9⁄29  B. 18⁄36 = 144⁄72  C. 18⁄36 = 72⁄144  D. 19⁄95 = 57⁄76

Respuesta :

Answer:

(C)

Step-by-step explanation:

A. The given fractions are:

[tex]\frac{32}{116}=\frac{9}{29}[/tex]

Upon solving , we get

[tex]\frac{8}{29}=\frac{9}{29}[/tex]

which is not possible, therefore this proportion does not show equivalence.

B.The given fractions are:

[tex]\frac{18}{36}=\frac{144}{72}[/tex]

Upon solving , we get

[tex]\frac{1}{2}=\frac{2}{1}[/tex]

which is not possible, therefore this proportion does not show equivalence.

C. The given fractions are:

[tex]\frac{18}{36}=\frac{72}{144}[/tex]

Upon solving , we get

[tex]\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

which satisfies the equivalence of two fractions, thus this is correct option.

D.The given fractions are:

[tex]\frac{19}{95}=\frac{57}{76}[/tex]

which is not possible, therefore this proportion does not show equivalence.
