Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Rohan had 36 pens.

He gave 11 to Karan.

To Find:

The fraction of the pens Rohan left.

Write two equivalent fractions for that amount

Explanation:

Equivalent fractions are fractions written in different forms but simplify to be the same fraction. We can find equivalent fractions by multiplying or dividing both the numerator and the denominator by the same number.

Solution:

Find the pens left;

Pens left = 36 - 15 - 11

Pens left = 10

Find the fraction of the pen left:

given away=15+11=26

•pens left =36-26=10

Original fraction of Pens left with Rohan=10/36

Two equivalent fractions are-

•10÷2/36÷2=5/18

•10×2/36×2=20/72

Therefore,

The two equivalent fractions are 5/18 and 20/72.

and

The fraction of leftover pens with Rohan is 10/36
