write five equivalent fractions for 3/5 and 4/7
Answers
3/5= 6/10, 9/15, 12/20, 15/25, 18/30
4/7 = 8/14, 12/21, 16/28, 20/35, 24/42
Hope that helps!
Concept:
The fractions with distinct numerators and denominators but the same value are said to be equivalent fractions. For instance, since 2/4 and 3/6 both equal the 1/2, they are identical fractions. An element of a whole is a fraction. The same amount of the whole is represented by equivalent fractions.
By multiplying the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the same number, we can determine the equivalent fraction for each fraction. For instance, we must multiply 2/3 by 3/3 after determining the third equivalent fraction of 2/3. Consequently, 2/3 (3/3) = 6/9 is the fraction that equals 2/3.
Given:
Find:
Solution:
Equivalent fraction can be calculated by,
Let a fraction be a/b
So, its equivalent fraction be = ak/bk , where k is and integer constant
3/5= (3 x 2)/(5 x 2) =6/10,
Similarly, 9/15, 12/20, 15/25, 18/30
4/7 = 8/14, 12/21, 16/28, 20/35, 24/42
Therefore, the equivalent fraction be 3/5= 6/10, 9/15, 12/20, 15/25, 18/30
4/7 = 8/14, 12/21, 16/28, 20/35, 24/42
