Answer 1

Given:

• A fraction ⅝.

To Find:

• A equivalent fraction of it.

Answer:

Firstly what does equivalent fractions means?

It actually means that two fractions are called equivalent fractions when each of them are converted to their simplest form i.e. the HCF of numerator and denominator will be 1 , and are found to be equal are called as equivalent fractions.

Now here we are provided four options , which are

• a) 10/8
• b)5/16
• c)15/24
• d)3/5

Here lets convert them in their simplest form .

→ 10/8 = 10÷2/8÷2 = 5/4

( Wrong option )

→ 5/16 is already in its simplest form.

(Wrong option)

→ 15/24 = 15÷3/24÷3 = 5/8.

( Correct option)

Hence the correct option is (c) 15/24.
