Answer:

No

Explanation:

-18:8 can be simplified to 9:4

-20:14 can be simplified to 10:7

-9:4 does not equal 10:7

Answer:

No, they're not.

Explanation:

You multiply 18×14 which = 252

Then Multiply 8×14 which = 112

(you don't multiply by 20)

It's not equivalent because it doesn't give the same number (252:112) Hope this helps!
