A graph is said to be equitably k-colorable if the vertex set V (G) can be partitioned into k independent subsets V_1, V_2, . . ., V_k such that | | V_i |−| V_j | | ≤ 1 (1 ≤ i, j ≤ k). A graph G is equitably k-choosable if, for any given k-uniform list assignment L, G is L-colorable and each color appears on at most |V(G)|/ k vertices. In this paper, we prove that if G is a graph such that mad(G) lt; 3, then G is equitably k-colorable and equitably k- choosable where k ≥max{Δ (G), 4 }. Moreover, if G is a graph such that mad(G) lt; 12/5, then G is equitably k-colorable and equitably k-choosable where k ≥max{Δ (G), 3 }.
