Question

Convert the following fractions into equivalent like fractions
3/4,5/6,7/8
​

Answer 1

Answer:

The equivalent like fractions are $\frac{18}{24} ,\frac{20}{24} ,\frac{21}{24}$

Step-by-step explanation:

For converting the given fractions into the equivalent-like ones we have to first make all the denominators of the fractions equal. For doing so we will have to find the lowest common multiple or the LCM of the given fractions and then make the denominators identical by multiplying with the suitable number.

The denominators in the given fraction are 4, 6 and 8

Therefore LCM of 4, 6, and 8 = 24.

Therefore the equivalent fractions are as follows:

$\frac{3}{4}$ × $\frac{6}{6}$ = $\frac{18}{24}$

$\frac{5}{6}$ × $\frac{4}{4}$ = $\frac{20}{24}$

$\frac{7}{8}$ × $\frac{3}{3}$ = $\frac{21}{24}$

Therefore the equivalent like fractions of the given are $\frac{18}{24} ,\frac{20}{24} ,\frac{21}{24}$
