Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine if they are equivalent, we will find each of them in lowest term:

To write in lowest term, we will find numbers common to both numerator and denominator. Then cancel them out

`\begin{gathered} (26)/(28)\colon\text{ 2 is common to numerator and denominator} \\ \\ (2*13)/(2*14)\text{ = }(13)/(14) \\ \\ No\text{ other number is common , so lwest term is }(13)/(14) \end{gathered}`
