(C)

\(\tfrac{16}{20}\)

(D)

\(\tfrac{9}{15}\)

Detailed Answer with Explanation:

Step 1: Fractions equal to ( frac{4}{5}) will simplify to ( frac{4}{5}).

Step 2: Reduce each option to simplest form.

  1. Option A: ( frac{40}{50})

    Divide top and bottom by (10).

    ( frac{40 div 10}{50 div 10}= frac{4}{5})

  2. Option B: ( frac{12}{15})

    Divide top and bottom by (3).

    ( frac{12 div 3}{15 div 3}= frac{4}{5})

  3. Option C: ( frac{16}{20})

    Divide top and bottom by (4).

    ( frac{16 div 4}{20 div 4}= frac{4}{5})

  4. Option D: ( frac{9}{15})

    Divide top and bottom by (3).

    ( frac{9 div 3}{15 div 3}= frac{3}{5})

Step 3: Only ( frac{3}{5}) is different from ( frac{4}{5}).

Answer: ( frac{9}{15}) is not equal to ( frac{4}{5}).
