Given :  12/54   & 54/12

To find :  following are equivalent rational numbers. or not

Solution:

To Check  Whether Rational number

a/b   & c/d are equal  

One way is to Write both in simple form after cancelling all common factors from numerator & denominator

then both rational number should be same

12/54  = 2 * 2 * 3  / ( 2 * 3 * 3 * 3)

= 2 /  9

54 / 12 = 9 /2

2/9  ≠ 9/2

Hence 12/54    & 54/12 are not equivalent rational numbers

another way  a/b = c/d

if  ad  =  bc

12/54   = 54/12

iff 12 * 12 = 54 * 54

iff 144  = 2916

which is not true

Hence  12/54    & 54/12 are not equivalent rational numbers
