#### 1. The equivalent ratio of 2:7 is _______
- Given ratio: 2:7
- To find an equivalent ratio, we multiply both terms of the ratio by the same number.
- Let's check the options:
- a. 7:2: This is not equivalent because the order is reversed.
- b. 6:14: This is equivalent because \(2 \times 3 = 6\) and \(7 \times 3 = 14\).
- c. 4:14: This is not equivalent because \(2 \times 2 = 4\) but \(7 \times 2 \neq 14\).
- d. 20:35: This is equivalent because \(2 \times 10 = 20\) and \(7 \times 10 = 35\).

Correct Answer: b. 6:14 or d. 20:35

#### 2. The simplest form of the ratio of 12:6 is _______
- Given ratio: 12:6
- To simplify, divide both terms by their greatest common divisor (GCD). The GCD of 12 and 6 is 6.
- \(12 ÷ 6 = 2\)
- \(6 ÷ 6 = 1\)
- Simplified ratio: 2:1

Correct Answer: d. 2:1

#### 3. The ratio of the number of sides of a triangle to the number of sides of a square is _______
- Number of sides of a triangle: 3
- Number of sides of a square: 4
- Ratio: \(3:4\)

Correct Answer: b. 3:4

#### 4. The simplest form of the ratio of 2m to 25 cm is _______
- Given ratio: 2m : 25cm
- Convert meters to centimeters: \(1 \text{ m} = 100 \text{ cm}\)
- \(2 \text{ m} = 2 \times 100 = 200 \text{ cm}\)
- New ratio: \(200 \text{ cm} : 25 \text{ cm}\)
- Simplify by dividing both terms by their GCD (which is 25):
- \(200 ÷ 25 = 8\)
- \(25 ÷ 25 = 1\)
- Simplified ratio: \(8:1\)

Correct Answer: c. 8:1

#### 5. If the cost of 3 dolls is Rs. 45, then the cost of 5 dolls is Rs. _______
- Cost of 3 dolls: Rs. 45
- Cost of 1 doll: \( \frac{45}{3} = 15 \) Rs.
- Cost of 5 dolls: \( 5 \times 15 = 75 \) Rs.

Correct Answer: a. 75

#### 6. 5: ____ :: 30: 18
- This is a proportion problem: \(5:x = 30:18\)
- Cross-multiply to solve for \(x\):
\[
5 \times 18 = 30 \times x
\]
\[
90 = 30x
\]
\[
x = \frac{90}{30} = 3
\]

Answer: 3

#### 7. Ratio of 5 minutes to 8 minutes is _______
- Given: 5 minutes : 8 minutes
- The ratio is simply \(5:8\).

Answer: 5:8

#### 8. If Rs. 50 is divided among P and Q in the ratio 3:2, then Q’s share is Rs. _______
- Total amount: Rs. 50
- Ratio: 3:2
- Sum of the parts of the ratio: \(3 + 2 = 5\)
- Q’s share: \(\frac{2}{5} \times 50 = 20\) Rs.

Answer: 20

#### 9. The two quantities in a ratio should be of the ______ unit.
- For a ratio to be meaningful, the two quantities must be of the same unit.

Answer: same

#### 10. If \(a:b::c:d\), then \(ad =\) _______
- This is a proportion: \(a:b = c:d\)
- In proportions, the product of the means equals the product of the extremes:
\[
a \times d = b \times c
\]

Answer: bc
