The correct option is C
12:8
A ratio obtained by multiplying or dividing the numerator and the denominator of a given ratio by the same number is called an equivalent ratio.
Hence, when the numerator and the denominator of the given ratio 3:2 are multiplied by 4, we get
3 × 4 2 × 4 = 12 8 = 12 : 8
3 : 2 and 12 : 8 are equivalent ratios.
