What are ratio and proportion?

A ratio is a collection of ordered integers a and b represented as a/b, with b never equaling zero. A proportionate expression is one in which two items are equal.

The pair of items from the pet store can be used to create a proportion.

If the ratio will be same, then the proportionality will be hold.

Check all the options.

3 cans of tuna for $4.50 and 5 cans of chicken for $6.

Then the ratio will be

$4.5 / 3 = $6 / 5

     $1.5 ≠ $1.2

2 cans of beef for $5 and 6 cans of shrimp for $15.25.

Then the ratio will be

$5 / 2 = $15.25 / 6

 $2.5 ≠ $2.54

5 deluxe meals for $4.75 and 10 premium meals for $9.

Then the ratio will be

$4.75 / 5 = $9 / 10

     $0.95 ≠ $0.90

4 cans of salmon for $9 and 6 cans of chicken for $13.50.

Then the ratio will be

$9 / 4 = $13.50 / 6

$2.25 = $2.25

Then the correct option is D.
