We are given

two ratios  as

First ratio:

[tex]\frac{30}{80}[/tex]

we can simplify it

[tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex]

Second ratio:

[tex]\frac{12}{32}[/tex]

we can simplify it

[tex]\frac{12}{32}=\frac{4\times 3}{4\times 8}[/tex]

we can cancel 4

[tex]\frac{12}{32}=\frac{ 3}{ 8}[/tex]

so, both ratios are same
