Answer 2

Answer:

No!

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is essentially asking if $\frac{5}{6}$ = $\frac{3}{4}$

Well we can easily tell that it doesn't, but if we want to check, we can do cross multiplication.

So we are trying to find out if 5(4) = 3(6).

5(4) = 20 and 3(6) = 18.

$20 \neq 18$ so $5:6 \neq 3:4$

They are not equal!
