Split the records into fields, compare the fields to each other:

table.each { |record|
   fields = record.split("\t") # assuming tabs as field separator
   print "Found it!" if fields[3] == fields[5]
}

Maybe it would be more productive and educational if you posted your code
and asked specific questions.
