Question

using equivalent fraction,find what % of the circle is shaded3/5​

Answer 1

Answer:

60%

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{3}{5} \times \frac{x}{x} = \frac{y}{100} \\ \\ \frac{3 \times 20}{5 \times 20} = \frac{60}{100} \\ \\ - > convert \: to \: percentage \\ \\ \frac{60}{100} \times 100 \\ \\ = 60$

Answer 2

Answer:

To calculate equivalent fractions, both the numerator and denominator must be multiplied by the same number. For example, to find fractions equivalent to 3/5:

3/5 x 2/2 = 6/10 (x 2/2 means multiplying both the numerator and denominator by 2. Any fraction where the numerator and denominator are the same is equal to 1. Multiplying anything by 1 doesn’t change the original number, so we know the fraction will be equivalent)

3/5 x 3/3 = 9/15

3/5 x 4/4 = 12/20

So, 3/5 = 6/10 = 9/15 = 12/20.
