You might know about equivalent fractions,

Lemme help you recall it!

Equivalent fraction of 1/2 are 2/4 , 3/6, 4/8, 5/10, and so on....!

So, how we do this is really simple...We just multiply the fraction by a fraction whose numerator and denominator are same...Here , we multiplied 2/2 first..then 3/3 , then  4/4 and 5/5..

As simple as that..Multiply the fraction by -13/-13...which will be equivalent to  65/-39.

So , here we got the required numerator thats it!
