only the top I need help on
Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer: #7 ( 6/8 and 7/8)
#8 (8/12 and 3/12)
Discussion:
#7
3/4 and 7/8. The common denominator is 8 so let's multiple numerator and denominator of (3/4) by 2 to get 8in the denominator
(3/4) * (2/2) = (3*2)/(4*2) = 6/8
#8
2/3 and 3/4. Intuitively, multiply the denominators 3 and 4 gives 12. Use that as a denominator.
(2/3) = (2/3) * (4/4) = (2*4)\(3*4) = 8/12
(1/4) = (1/4) * (3/3) = (1*3)/(4*3) = 3/12
Thank you,
MrB
Answer:
7. 6/8 & 7/8
8. 8/12 & 3/12
Explanation:
For number 7, the LCD is 8.
So, [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] * [tex]\frac{2}{2}[/tex] = (3*2)/(4*2) = 6/8
For number 8, the LCD is 12.
So,
(2/3) = (2/3) * (4/4) = (2*4) / (3*4) = 8/12
(1/4) = (1/4) * (3/3) = (1*3) / (4*3) = 3/12
Hope this helps u!!
If it did, let me know and leave a thanks:))
