Calculation:
Equivalent ratios are two ratios which have same relationship between the numbers.
The given ratios can be simplified further by cross multiplying as:

\frac{29.2}{10.4} = \frac{7.3}{2.6}

29.2 (2.6) = 7.3 (10.4)

75.92 = 75.92

As, both the results are equal. The given ratios are equivalent.

Step 1

\frac{29.2}{10.4} = \frac{7.3}{2.6}

Expand

\frac{29.2}{10.4}

by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 10.

\frac{292}{104} = \frac{7.3}{2.6}

Reduce the fraction

\frac{292}{104}

to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 4.

\frac{73}{26} = \frac{7.3}{2.6}

Expand

\frac{7.3}{2.6}

by multiplying both numerator and the denominator by 10.

\frac{73}{26} = \frac{73}{26}
