Question 16

State whether the given statements are true (T) or false (F).

$\frac{3}{8}=\frac{15}{40}$

Answer 1

Given, $\frac{3}{8}=\frac{15}{40}$

Simplest form of $\frac{3}{8}=\frac{3}{8}$
Simplest form of $\frac{15}{40}=\frac{3}{8}$ [on dividing numerator and denominator by 5 ]

Simplest form of both the ratios are equal as $\frac{3}{8}=\frac{3}{8}$.

Hence, the given statement is true.
