I am not really sure if that what the question asks for, but I know it is right;
By simplifying them to the smallest value of fraction possible, if the 2 simplified fractions are equal then you proved the equity of both fractions.
For Example;
Prove that [tex] \frac{500}{1000} [/tex] is equal to [tex] \frac{800}{1600} [/tex]
Solution: Simplify;
[tex]\frac{500}{1000}= \frac{5}{10}= \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Similarly,
[tex]\frac{800}{1600}= \frac{8}{16}= \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
So both are [tex]=\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Hope this helps!
