The numbers in the simplified form are smaller and so may be easier to comprehend. Also, working with the lowest terms means that the results of multiplications or divisions are smaller numbers and so less susceptible to errors - either calculation mistakes made by the user or rounding errors because computers can store and manipulate numbers to only a limited degree of accuracy.

How can you determine if two ratios are equilvalent?
To determine if two ratios are equivalent, you can cross-multiply the terms. For example, if you have ratios ( a:b ) and ( c:d ), you check if ( a \times d = b \times c ). If the products are equal, the two ratios are equivalent. Alternatively, you can simplify both ratios to their lowest terms and see if they are the same.
