Respuesta :
They are = because both can be reduced to 9/17
Also their cross products are equal 27 x 34 = 18 x 51 - Both equal 918 so both fractions are equal to each other.

Answer:
Yes its true . both sides are equal
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\frac{27}{51} =\frac{18}{34}[/tex]
Lets simplify each fraction and check
Left hand side fraction has a common factor 3. divide top and bottom by 3
So [tex]\frac{27}{51}[/tex] becomes 9/17
Now the right hand side fraction has a common factor 2. Divide top and bottom by 2
So [tex]\frac{18}{34}[/tex] becomes 9/17
[tex]\frac{27}{51} =\frac{18}{34}[/tex]
After reducing fractions the equation becomes
[tex]\frac{9}{17} =\frac{9}{17}[/tex]
So both are equal
