Best Answer

yes, 4/6 =2/3

Proof:

Factor out LCD ---->2

---->(4/2)/(6/2) = (4/2)(2/6) //note that we must reciprocate the denominator to switch from multiplication to division (axiom)

=[2*2/2 * (2/2*3)]//[note that four of the five twos in the bracketed eqxn cancel out, leaving 2*(1/3) or 2/3 []
