Answer 2

Given:

A proper fraction of value 2/7.

To Find:

The fractions equivalent to the above fraction,

Solution:

The given problem can be solved using the concepts of fractions.

1. The given fraction is 2/7.

2. Consider a fraction (p/q),

=> Multiply the numerator and denominator with 2, The value of the fraction$\frac{2*p}{2*q}$ is still the same as the value of p/q.

=> Multiply the numerator and denominator with 3, The value of the fraction$\frac{3*p}{3*q}$ is still the same as the value of p/q.

=> Multiply the numerator and denominator with n, The value of the fraction$\frac{n*p}{n*q}$ is still the same as the value of p/q.

3. The value of the fraction does not change if the numerator and denominator are multiplied with the same number.

4. Hence, the equivalent fractions of 2/7 will be,

=> $\frac{2*2}{2*7} ,\frac{3*2}{3*7} ,\frac{4*2}{4*7} ,\frac{2*n}{7*n}$

=> $\frac{4}{14},\frac{6}{21} ,\frac{8}{28} ,\frac{2n}{7n}$

Therefore, some of the equivalent fractions of 2/7 are ( 4/14, 6/21, 8/28).
