Question

Is 16:14 ratios equivalent to 64:60

Answer 1

No because 16 is divisible to 64 , 4 times. 14 does not go into 60 4 times, in which it would have to be to be an equivalent ratio.

Answer 2

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that ratios 16:14 and 64:60

We have to find the given ratios are equivalent

We know that when two ratios a:band c:d are equivalent

Then $a\times d=b\times c$

We have a=16 , b=14 ,c=64 and d=60

Product of 16 and 60=$16\times 60=960$

Product of 14 and 64=$14\times 64=896$

$960\neq 896$

Hence, given ratios are not equivalent.
