Question

Find the missing number 5/?= 20/12

Answer 1

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

20/12 can be simplified using a divisor a 4. We get 4 by doing the calculation of 20/5 = 4. Therefore we do the same to the denominator therefore 12/4 = 3.

20/12 = 5/3

Answer 2

Answer:

Lets suppose the missing number is = a

now we can write it as

5/a = 20/12

By cross multiplication

5 × 12 = 20a

60 = 20a

a = 60/20

a = 3

so 5/3 = 20/12
