What is the difference between equal ratios and equivalent ratios?
To write equal ratios multiply both terms by the same number or divided both terms. For example, 2/ 9 is a ratio equal ratio will be 4/18. There is no difference between equal ratios and equivalent ratios.
How can you tell when two ratios form a proportion?
The simplest way is to check if their cross-products are the same. That is, if you have A/B and X/Y then if AY = BX the two ratios are equivalent.
When are 2 ratios equal?
The two ratios are said to be equal when even if we multiply both terms by the same number or divided both terms , the equivalent fraction or simplest fraction is the same.
How can you determinate if two ratios are equivalent?
Multiply the antecedent of each ratio by the consequent of the other. If the products are equal, the ratios are equivalent.For example, given the two ratios A:B and C:D, if the product of A and D equals the product of B and C, then A:B::C:D (A is to B as C is to D).Two ratios a:b and c:d are equivalent if the crossproducts are the same.That is a/b = c/d if and only if a*d = b*c.
What the equilavent ratios of 5to 3?
Multiply both the numerator (top) and the denominator (bottom) of the ratio by any non-zero integer. You will have an equivalent ratio.
