Question

Is 4/5 equal to 8/9? Explain please! PS I just put in a random fraction I did not know if it was equal or not.

Answer 1

8/10 because equal fractions have to be multiplied by 2

Answer 2

No, it is not.

For fractions to be equivalent, they need to have an equal ratio.

For example, 3/9 and 2/6.
They still have the same ratio of 1/3.
Basically, just try dividing them by their simplified fraction.
