28/16=1.75
560/240=2.33

1.75 doesnt equal 2.33, which means that it is not equivalent. Hope that helps! :)

Answer: No, they are not equivalent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of own pets = 28

out of 28, there are 16.

So, the ratio would be \(\dfrac{16}{28}=\dfrac{4}{7}\)

Number of own pets = 560

Out of 560, there are 240 are student own pets.

So, the ratio would be \(\dfrac{240}{560}=\dfrac{3}{7}\)

So, \(\dfrac{4}{7} eq \dfrac{3}{7}\)

Hence, they are not equivalent.
