equivalent to

I have seen many like "A equivalent to B", is it correct? Because I could't find a verb in the sentence.
  

Top answer

"A equivalent to B" is not a complete sentence. The nearest most obvious complete sentence would be "A is equivalent to B". "A equivalent to B" may be possible in some situation where a complete sentence is not required.
