The only pair of fractions that is equivalent is 18/27 and 10/15. Option B is correct.

To find which fractions are comparable, let's compare each pair:

12/20 and 20/25:

Simplify each fraction:

12/20 = 3/5

20/25 = 4/5

Since 3/5 and 4/5 are not equal, these fractions are not equivalent.

18/27 and 10/15:

Simplify each fraction:

18/27 = 2/3

10/15 = 2/3

Since 2/3 and 2/3 are equal, these fractions are equivalent.

6/24 and 5/15:

Simplify each fraction:

6/24 = 1/4

5/15 = 1/3

Since 1/4 and 1/3 are not equal, these fractions are not equivalent.

3/25 and 5/25:

Simplify each fraction:

3/25 = 3/25

5/25 = 5/25

Since 3/25 and 5/25 are equal, these fractions are equivalent.

So, the only pair of fractions that is equivalent is 18/27 and 10/15
