What is the equivalent fraction of 3
Answers
Answer:
Equivalent fractions are the fractions that have different numerator and denominator but are equal to the same value. For example, 2/4 and 3/6 both are equal to ½.
Concept:
Equivalent fractions state that two or more than two fractions are said to be equal if both results the same fraction after simplification.
As an illustration, consider:
1/2 = 2/4 = 4/8
However, it is obvious that the numerators and denominators of the aforementioned fractions differ.
By dividing the numerator and denominator by their shared factor, we get the following result:
(4/4) / (8/4) = 1/2
Similarly, if we simplify 2/4, we once more get 1/2.
(2/2) / (4/2)
Given:
The number is 3.
Find:
The equivalent fraction.
Solution:
The number 3 can be written as 3/1.
Now, multiplying 3/1 by 2/2 we get,
(3x2) / (1x2) = 6/2
Now, multiplying 3/1 by3/3 we get,
(3x3) / (1x3) = 9/3
Now, multiplying 3/1 by 4/4 we get,
(3x4) / (1x4) = 12/4.
Hence, we conclude that, 6/2 ,9/3 , 12/4 are the equivalent fractions to 3.
