Answer:
Option D is the correct choice.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that the ratio of the number of cupcakes to the number of pastries in a box is 7:2. We are asked to choose the table which represents the possible amounts of cupcakes and pastries in a box, given the ratio.
We can see that the ration in first three tables are not equal.
The amounts of cupcakes and pastries in a the 4th table are in the same ratio as:
[tex]\frac{14}{4}=\frac{7*2}{2*2}=\frac{7}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{28}{8}=\frac{7*4}{2*4}=\frac{7}{2}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{56}{16}=\frac{7*8}{2*8}=\frac{7}{2}[/tex]
Therefore, last table is the correct choice.
