Question

are these ratios equivalent? 28 staff members for every 42 campers 4 staff members for every 6 campers yes no

Explanation:

Step1: Simplify first ratio

$\frac{28}{42} = \frac{28\div14}{42\div14} = \frac{2}{3}$

Step2: Simplify second ratio

$\frac{4}{6} = \frac{4\div2}{6\div2} = \frac{2}{3}$

Step3: Compare simplified ratios

Both ratios simplify to $\frac{2}{3}$, so they are equivalent.

Answer:

yes
