Answer:

2/3 and 10/15 1/6 and 3/18

Explanation:

to determine which fractions are equivalent, we multiply each fraction by 100

4/ 5 x 100 = 80

8/12 x 100 = 66.67

4/5 and 8/12 are not equivalent

2/3 x 100 = 66.7

10/15 x 100 = 66.7

2/3 and 10/15 are equivalent

If 10/15 is expressed in its simplest form. that is if both numerator and denominator are divided by 5, it would equal 2/3

1/6 x 100 = 16.7

3/18 x 100 = 16.7

1/6 and 3/18 are equivalent

If 3/18 is expressed in its simplest form. that is if both numerator and denominator are divided by 3, it would equal 1/6

2/7 x 100 = 28.6

6/20 x 100 = 30

2/7 and 6/20 are not equivalent
