Answers
Answer:
Find the equivalent fraction of 3/5 having
(a) denominator 20
(b) numerator 9
Solution:
We use the concepts of fractions and equivalent fractions to answer the given questions.
Fractions that have the same values irrespective of their numerators and denominators are called equivalent fractions
To obtain the equivalent fractions of 3 / 5, we need to multiply the numerator and denominator by the same numbers.
(a) Denominator 20
To get a fraction with denominator 20, we need to multiply the denominator 3 / 5 by a number that gives 20 as result in the denominator.
3 / 5 × 4 / 4 = 12 / 20.
∴ By multiplying both the numerator and the denominator by 4, we get the required fraction.
(b) Numerator 9
To get a fraction with numerator 9, we need to multiply the numerator 3 / 5 by a number that gives 9 as result in the numerator.
3 / 5 × 3 / 3 = 9 / 15.
∴ By multiplying both the numerator and denominator by 3, we get the required fraction.
Answer:
there is no possibility of getting equivalent fraction for this no with the given both conditions as numerator can only be a multiple of 13 and denominator can be of 5 whereas 60 and 7 are not multiples of 13 and 5 respectively
