right size for 3 miniature goldfish. The graph represents this relationship.

Answer:

A & D

Step-by-step explanation:

If you can fit 3 fish in a 9 gallon tank, that means as a point on a line, that would be at (3, 9).

If you write this as a fraction it's 3/9. Simplifying that, you get 1/3. That means 1 fish needs 3 gallons.  If you make hat a point on the line, it's (1,3).

Another equivalent fraction would be 6/18. If you multiply the numerator and denominator by 2, 3/9 becomes 6/18.

B & C are not equivalent fractions.

Answer: A and B

Explanation:

Since if 3 fish can fit in a 9 gallon tank thats means the point on a line would be (3,9). Since 3/9 can be simplified, it will be 1/3. Another equivalent fraction would be 6/18. If you can multiply by 2, 3/9 will be 6/18.

So B and C are not equivalent fractions.
