Answer:
Yes. The are equivalent to each other
Step-by-step explanation:
21 : 35
The LCM of these two numbers is 7
When we divide both of them by 7, we're left with 3:5
24 : 40
The LCM of these two numbers is 8
When we divide both numbers by 8, we're left with 3:5
And, 3:5 = 3:5, so we can say 21:35 = 24:40
PS: Also, if we multiply 21 : 35 by 8 and 24 : 40 by 7, we get the same result, i.e 168 : 280 which also proves that they are equivalent.
