Question

Find the equivalent to with

a. Numerator 36

b. Denominator 40

c. Numerator 21​

Answer 1

Answer:

(i) Let 3/5=□/30

Clearly shows 30=(5×6)

Now multiply the numerator by 6 also

∴3/5=(3×6)/(5×6)=18/30

Hence, 18/30 is the equivalent fraction of 3/5 having denominator 30

(ii) Let 3/5=24/□

Clearly shows 24=(3×8)

Now multiply the denominator by 8 also

∴3/5=(3×8)/(5×8)=24/40

Hence, 24/40 is the equivalent fraction of 3/5 having numerator 24
