Answer: 10:12 ; 15:18

Explanation:

Equivalent fractions are the fractions with different numerators and denominators which represent the same proportion or value of the whole.

To get equivalent fractions or ratio, the numerator and denominator are multiplied or divided by the same number.

To convert 5/6 to equivalent ratio goes thus:

Multiply the numerator and denominator by 2

5/6 = 5×2/6×2 = 10/12 = 10:12

Also, Multiply the numerator and denominator by 3

5/6 = 5×3/6×3 = 15/18 = 15:18
