Two ratios such as 8:20 and 6:15 are equivalent when they can be reduced to the same set of numbers through division or multiplication with a common factor. in this case dividing the numbers in the first ratio by 4 and the ones in the second ratio by 3 reduces them both to 2:5. Therefore 8:20 and 6:15 are equivalent ratios.
