4:13 is the same as 4/13
let's test choice A
8:17 is the same as 8/17
-------------------------------------------------------
so IF 4:13 is equivalent to 8:17, then this equation must be true
4/13 = 8/17

ok
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
you can cross multiply to check
4/13 = 8/17
4*17 = 13*8
68 = 104
The fact that 68 = 104 is false means that 4/13 = 8/17 is false
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
so 4:13 is NOT equivalent to 8:17
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
you'll check the other choices that way
