Final answer:

False. Equivalent fractions are fractions that represent the same value when simplified to their lowest terms.

Step-by-step explanation:

False

Equivalent fractions are fractions that represent the same value. They may have different numerators and denominators, but when simplified to their lowest terms, they are equal. For example, 1/2 and 2/4 are equivalent fractions because when simplified, they both equal 1/2.

However, 'and -' is not a valid fraction, so it cannot be compared to determine if it is equivalent to another fraction.
