Mrs. Valdez wanted to determine the number of people, p, she could safely take in her car to the fun run. She determined that p < 5. Which statement best describes a possible number of people she can take in her car?

The perimeters are in the same ratio as the corresponding sides.

Step-by-step explanation:

There is no diagram given in your question, so imagine an example in which the ratio of two corresponding sides is, say,  7:4  (or 7/4).  Then the perimeters are in the same ratio,  7:4.

Note: The areas are in the ratio which is the square of the ratio of sides, so 49:16 in the example.
