Given:
The two ratios are 13:15 and 30:26.
To find:
Whether the given ratios are equivalent or not.
Solution:
Two ratios are equivalent if the values of the ratio are equal after simplification.
[tex]13:15=\dfrac{13}{15}[/tex]
And,
[tex]30:26=\dfrac{30}{26}[/tex]
[tex]30:26=\dfrac{15}{13}[/tex]
[tex]30:26=15:13[/tex]
The first ratio is 13:15 and the value of second ratio after simplification is 15:13 both ratios are different, so,
[tex]\dfrac{13}{15}\neq \dfrac{30}{26}[/tex]
Therefore, the required answer is "No", the given ratios are not a pair of equivalent ratios.
