Are 16:14 and 64:60 equivalent ratios?
Ratios are equivalent when you divide the first term by the second and it's the same for both ratios.
In this case, 16/14 is not equal to 64/60
Answer:
Both the ratios are not equivalent.
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the provided ratios:
16:14
The above ratio can be written as:
\(\frac{16}{40}=\frac{2}{5}\)
Now consider the another ratio:
64:60
The above ratio can be written as:
\(\frac{64}{60}=\frac{16}{15}\)
Now compare both the ratio:
\(\frac{2}{5} eq \frac{16}{15}\)
Hence, both the ratios are not equivalent.
