Answer:

9/24 and 3/8 are equivalent

Explanation:

Ratios are reduced to lowest terms by dividing by any common factors the numbers may have. The ratios in lowest terms are ...

3/10 = 3/10

9/24 = 3/8 . . . . . 9 and 24 are divisible by 3

3/8 = 3/8

1/5 = 1/5

The ratios 9/24 and 3/8 are equivalent.
