Jamaiah, remember that anything multiplied by 1 is itself, and anything over itself is 1.
For example, 7/8 x 5/5 = 35/40. Since 5/5 = 1, 7/8 = 35/40.
A way to prove if two fractions are equal is to cross multiply. Both should be equal!
7(40) = 35(8)
280 = 280
Boom.
I'll start and you finish.
7/10 = 22/29
7(29) = 22(7)
203 = 154
Hey, that's not true, so these two fractions are not equal!
You got this.
