Respuesta :

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] \frac{16}{24} = \frac{2}{3} [/tex]

if we divide 16 ÷ 8 = 2

if we divide 24 ÷ 8 = 3

[tex] \frac{28}{42} = \frac{4}{6} = \frac{2}{ 3} [/tex]

if we divide 28 ÷ 7 = 4

if we divide 42 ÷7 = 6

we divide both 6 and 4 ÷2

2/3

[tex] \frac{16}{24} = \frac{28}{42} [/tex]
