Yes they are. Multiply 12 by 1.6666666666666666666666666666667 (1.66) and you can get 20. Multiply 15 by 1.6666666666666666666666666666667 (1.66) as well and get 25.

Hoped I helped!

Yes they are you should use cross multiplication or just try dividing them and then compare the decimals When I divided them I got 0.8 on both of them making both of the equal.
