1) 8/5 is equal to 16/10 (multiply top and bottom by 2), or 24/15 (multiply top and bottom by 3), or 32/20 (multiply top and bottom by 4)
2) 27/81 is equal to 9/27 (divide top and bottom by 3), or 3/9 (divide top and bottom by 9), or 1/3 (divide top and bottom by 27).
3) 4:9 is equal to 8:18(multiply both by 2) or 12:27 (multiply both by 3) or 16:36 (multiply both by 4)

I am not sure what an equivalent ratio is and I am not looking it up either. Do your own homework.
