15:12 = 1:4
Because 15:12 is This fraction is a IMPROPER FRACTION once the absolute value of the top number or numerator (15) is greater than the absolute value of the bottom number or denomintor (12). So, the equivalent fraction is a MIXED NUMBER which is made up of a whole number (1) and proper fraction (1/4).
