Question

Is 16:12 and 64:60 equivalent?

Answer 1

nope they arent equivalent. *

Answer 2

you can set ratios up the same way you can fractions:
(let's just say for now that they are equal)

`(16)/(12) = (64)/(60)`
simplify the fractions and you get:

`(4)/(3) = (16)/(15)`
That isn't true, so

`(4)/(3) \\eq (16)/(15)`
so your answer is no,
16:12 and 64:60 are not equivalent
