Yes they can. For example: if I have the fraction 3/6, this equals out to 1/2 or 0.5. Another fraction, for example 4/8, when you divide the numerator and the denominator by 4, you also get 1/2 or 0.5. Another way to do this is to get out a calculator, and punch in 3/6. You should get 0.5 as your answer. Then punch in 4/8, and you should still get the answer 0.5 proving that two different fractions can have the same equivalent.
