Question

How to find out the equivalent fraction of 15/20 using division

Answer 1

Answer:

3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equivalent fraction

Find the HCF

Here HCF (highest common factor) of 15 and 20 is 5

so divide numerator and denominator by 5 (the HCF)

15/5=3

20/5=4

so resulting equivalent fraction is 3/4

we mostly divide by HCF to get the simplest fraction, but the idea is divide both numerator and denominator with the same number.(The fraction still remains same)
