Answer:
D. 12/18 = 16/24
Step-by-step explanation:
The method we must go about to solve this is finding the constant. For A, we can solve it by doing 10 divided by 8 (which is 1.25) and then 40 divided by 1.25 to see if it is 36. Alternatively, we can do 10 divided by 8 and then 40 divided by 36 to see if the constant is the same. It's up to you!
My answers:
A. No (constant varies)
B. No (constant varies)
C. No (constant varies)
D. Yes! Constant is 0.75
How to solve for D:
12/16 = 0.75
18/0.75 = 24 OR 18/24 = 0.75

Hello!
10/40 = 8/36 ?
10 × 36 = 40 × 8
360 = 40 × 8
360 ≠ 320 => 10/40 ≠ 8/36
8/18 = 6/16 ?
8 × 16 = 18 × 6
128 = 18 × 6
128 ≠ 108 => 8/18 ≠ 6/16
9/15 = 44/50 ?
9 × 50 = 15 × 44
450 = 15 × 44
450 ≠ 660 => 9/15 ≠ 44/50
12/18 = 16/24 ?
12 × 24 = 18 × 16
288 = 18 × 16
288 = 288 => 12/18 = 16/24
Good luck! :)
