Given: Numerator of the fraction is 24.
To find: Denominator of the fraction so that the fraction obtained is equivalent to 4/7.
Answer:
Let the denominator be x.
24/x = 4/7
24 = 4/7x
4/7x = 24
4x = 24*7
4x = 168
x = 168/4
x = 42
Therefore the fraction is 24/42.
Proof: 4/7*6/6 = 24/42 (Equivalent fraction)
