• A. $4:6$
• B. $1:4$
• C. $4:1$
• D. $3:2$

Answer 1

The correct option is A

$4:6$

Explanation for correct option:

A ratio is similar to a fraction. So, if we divide or multiply the numerator and the denominator by the same number, we get an equivalent ratio.

(A) $4:6=\frac{4}{6}=\frac{4÷2}{6÷2}=\frac{2}{3}=2:3$

$\therefore 4:6$ represents the same ratio as $2:3$.

$\Rightarrow$$4:6$ is an equivalent ratio of $2:3$.

Thus, option (A)is correct.
