sophia says that you can solve the problem in the Example by multiplying both quantities in the ratio 60 : 36 by 1 . Is Sophia correct? Explain.

No multiplying both quantities in the ratio 60 : 36 by 1  would not give the answer .

But multiplying both quantities in the ratio 60 : 36 by 1/6  would solve it.

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplying any number or ratio by 1 gives the same answer no matter what the expression or how much bigger the number is.This will not give the solution .

If it is multiplied with a fraction like 1/6  that would give the correct answer.

Multiplying it with 1/6 reduces the ratio and gives a better estimate.

A:B

60:36

60*1/6: 36*1/6

10: 6

Meaning that for a total of 16 there are 10 of category A and 6 of category B.

But if we do the same procedure with the answer is same which does not solve the question.

A:B

60:36

60*1: 36*1

60: 36

it is probably the graph on the bottom right.

lol we need to see what the question is asking about
