Question

Find the equivalent fraction of 3/5 having a denominator is 40

Answer 1

Answer:

24/40 is the answer for the given problem

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that : 3/5

converting 3/5 as the fraction with denominator is 40 them multiply both numerator and deniminator with 8

=(3×8)/(5×8)=24/40

Answer 2

• The equivalent fraction of 3/5 having a denominator is 40 is equal to 24/40 .

To Find :- The equivalent fraction of 3/5 having a denominator is 40 ?

Concept used :-

• Fractions which have different numerators and denominators but have equal value are called as equivalent fraction .

Solution :-

Let us assume that, the equivalent fraction has numerator as x .

So,

→ Given fraction = 3/5

→ Equivalent fraction = x/40 { since denominator is given as 40 }

then,

→ Given fraction = Equivalent fraction { since both have same values }

→ 3/5 = x/40

cross - multiply,

→ 5 × x = 3 × 40

→ 5 × x = 120

→ 5 × x = 5 × 24

dividing both sides by 5,

→ x = 24

therefore,

→ Required equivalent fraction = x/40 = 24/40 (Ans.)

Method (2) :- We can make equivalent fractions by multiplying or dividing both numerator and denominator by the same value .

So,

→ Given fraction = 3/5

and,

→ Equivalent fraction denominator = 40

then, In order to make equivalent fraction,

→ Denominator of given fraction is multiplied by = 40 ÷ 5 = 8

Therefore, we can conclude that, we must multiply the numerator with same value as 8 .

hence,

→ Numerator of equivalent fraction becomes = 3 × 8 = 24

So,

→ Required equivalent fraction = Numerator / Denominator = 24/40 (Ans.)
