My Answer:

To make it equivalent, multiply the numerator and denominator with same number. Let us take a example of 4/8.

Example: 4×4/8×4 = 16/32.

Answer 2

$\frac{1}{15}=\frac{1*2}{15*2}=\frac{2}{30} \\\\\frac{1}{15}=\frac{1*3}{15*3}=\frac{3}{45}$

Generally, for any real number n other than 0,

$\frac{1}{15}=\frac{1*n}{15*n}$
