Analyze the table, which shows the number of students from two classes who saw the summer blockbuster. Determine if the relationship is proportional.

Mrs. Hunt:21 saw the block buster/24 students in all
Mrs. Spears:15 saw the block buster/18 students in all

A. No the relationship is not proportional because 21/4=7/8 and 15/18=5/6.

B. No the relationship is not proportional because 18/21=6/7=3 and 18-15=3.

C. Yes the relation is proportional because 24/21=3 and 18-15=3.>>

D. Yes the relation is proportional because the numbers are multiples of 3.

Answer:

A

21/24 reduced to its lowest term is 7/8, while 15/18 is 5/6 in its lowest term. Each of which is not proportional to the other.

Answer:

A. no the relationship is not porportional becuase 21/24=7/8 and 15/18=5/6

One way to find out if a relationship is proportional  is to make the numbers into fractions.

Mrs hunt: 21/24

Mrs spears: 15/18

we need to simplify them and if these numbers are the same fraction

or the fraction equals the same thing then its proportional.

To simplify we need to find the GCF(greatest common factor) of the numbers 21 and 24.

The gcf is 3.

21/3=7

24/3=8

Mrs hunt reduced fraction or simplified fraction is 7/8

we need do same for Mrs Spears.

greatest common factor is 3

so when simplified you get

5/6

now that we figured out the fractions we need to decided if its proportional.

we can check if its proportional by a short cut step.

multiply the numbers together and if the nominators equal the denominator its proportional....

5*7=35

8*6=48

Its not porportional.....
