C. 3/4= 9/12  
D. 4/8= 8/17

Accepted Answer

Correct Answer: (C)3/4= 9/12. 
Rationale: The correct statement is 3/4 = 9/12.Step-by-Step Explanation:Let's evaluate each option:A) 5/12 = 15/24: To check if these fractions are equal, we can simplify 15/24. The greatest common divisor (GCD) of 15 and 24 is 3, so: Since 5/12 is not equal to 5/8, this statement is incorrect.B) 2/3 = 7/10: To check if these fractions are equal, cross-multiply: Since 20 is not equal to 21, this statement is incorrect.C) 3/4 = 9/12: Simplify 9/12 by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 3: Since 3/4 is equal to 3/4, this statement is correct.D) 4/8 = 8/17: Simplify 4/8 by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 4: Since 1/2 is not equal to 8/17, this statement is incorrect.Final Answer:The correct statement is C) 3/4 = 9/12.
