156/396 and -26/33 are equivalent fractions

true or false?

Equivalent means equal. fractions are a ratio so if a fraction containing larger numbers can be reduced by dividing the numerator and denominator by the same number and you get a fraction with smaller whole numbers then those 2 fractions will be equivalent

So let's check if they can be made the same.

I will divide the larger denominator by the smaller denominator and see if it is a facfor.
396/33 = 12

So 33 is a factor and it gord in 12 times
So if the numerator can be multiplied by 12 and you get the larger numerator then they will be equivalent fractions:
26*12 = 312

the numerators would be different therefore they are not equivalent
