Question

Jeff drinks 2/3 of a galss of juice. Which fraction is equivalent to 2/3?

A, 1/3
B, 3,2
C, 3/6
D, 8/12

Answer 1

Let's consider all the options

1/3 will remain 1/3 only, no reduction in it
3/2 is definitely not equal to 2/3
3/6 cam be reduced to 1/2 ( as both numerator & denominator are divisible by 3) But 1/2 is not equal to 2/3

8/12 is divisible by 4 , so it can be reduced to 2/3
And it is equal to 2/3

So correct option - D 8/12

Hope This Helps You!
