No....if you set them up as proportions and cross multiply the sides do not equal

It should be noted that the ratios 4/5 and 5/6 are not equivalent to 2/3.

First and foremost, we can convert the fractions to percentages. This will be:

  • 2/3 = 2/3 × 100 = 66.7%
  • 4/5 = 4/5 × 100 = 80%
  • 5/6 = 5/6 × 100 = 83.3%

  • From the calculations given above, we can infer that 4/5 and 5/6 are not equivalent to 2/3 since they have different percentages.

Therefore, from the percentages, all the fractions are not equivalent.
