Answer:

NO!

Step-by-step explanation:

They are not equivalent. We can check this. If you rewrite them as fractions 13/14 and 1/2, you can cross multiply and see if they are equal. Which they are not. Also, you could just guess.... think of 13:14 as 13 out of 14. And 1:2 as 1 out of 2. You can tell that 13/14 is much greater than 1/2.
