Answer:
Yes they are equivalent.
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the least common denominator or LCM of the two denominators:
LCM of 4 and 20 is 20
Next, find the equivalent fraction of both fractional numbers with denominator 20
For the 1st fraction, since 4 × 5 = 20,
3
4
=
3 × 5
4 × 5
=
15
20
Likewise, for the 2nd fraction, since 20 × 1 = 20,
15
20
=
15 × 1
20 × 1
=
15
20
Since the denominators are now the same, the fraction with the bigger numerator is the greater fraction
15
20
=
15
20
or
3
4
=
15
20
