I assume you are talking about equivalent *to another ratio*. Equivalence means that two (or more) things mean pretty much the same thing. For ratios to be equivalent, that would mean that when they are reduced (by factoring out any common multiples of the numerator [top part] and denominator [bottom part]) they become the same ratio.
Case in point:
1/2 is equivalent to 2/4 (which is 1/2 when you factor out a 2 from the numerator and denominator.) 1/3 is equivalent to 3/9 (which is also 1/3 when you factor out the 3 from the numerator and denominator.)
