Question

find the number that makes the ratio equivalent to 1:3. 8:□ submit

Explanation:

Step1: Understand equivalent ratios

Equivalent ratios are proportional. So if \(1:3\) is equivalent to \(8:x\) (let the unknown be \(x\)), then \(\frac{1}{3}=\frac{8}{x}\).

Step2: Solve for \(x\)

Cross - multiply: \(1\times x = 3\times8\).
So \(x = 24\).

Answer:

24
