Answer:

Yes, they are equivalent.

Explanation:

This is a reducing problem. You would need to reduce down each fraction to it's simplest form. Equivalent means equal.

3/16 cannot be reduced any further than it already is.

9/48 can be reduced by 3, which reduces it to it's simplest form 3/16

3/16 = 3/16

So, yes they are equivalent!

Hope this helped!! :)
