Detailed Solution

Given fractions are 1 3  and 9 24  .
Since the equivalent fractions are the fractions which have different values of the numerator and the denominator, but they are equals.
So, the fractions can be written as:
9 24 = 1×9 3×8 = 1 3 × 9 8 9 24 = 1 3 × 9 8 9 24 1 3  
So, the given statement is false and the fractions 1 3   and 9 24   are not equivalent.
Therefore, option (2) is correct.
