Answer:

The next four multiples of 7/12 ar,

14/12, 21/12, 28/2 and 35/12

Explanation:

The given fraction is 7/12

To find the next multiples, we have to find multiples of these fraction with 2, 3, 4 and 5

To find the next multiples

7/12 * 2 = 14/12

7/12 * 3 = 21/12

7/12 * 4 = 28/12

7/12 * = 35/12

Therefore the multiples of 7/12 are,

14/12, 21/12, 28/2 and 35/12

Hello!

The answer is:


(14)/(12),(21)/(12),(28)/(12),(35)/(12)

Why?

Let's explain with an example the definition of a multiple.

Multiple of the number 1 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and so...

Multiple of the number 3 are: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15 and so...

A multiple of a number is the repeated sum of itself, from the example:

Multiple of the number 1 are: Itself, (1+1), (1+1+1), (1+1+1+1), (1+1+1+1+1) and so...

Therefore,

Multiple of
(7)/(12) are:


(7)/(12) =(7)/(12)(itself)=(7)/(12)*1 \\\\(14)/(12)= (7)/(12)+(7)/(12)=(7)/(12)*2\\\\(21)/(12)=(7)/(12)+(7)/(12)+(7)/(12)=(7)/(12)*3\\\\\\(28)/(12)=(7)/(12)+(7)/(12)+(7)/(12)+(7)/(12)=(7)/(12)*4\\\\(35)/(12)=(7)/(12)+(7)/(12)+(7)/(12)+(7)/(12)+(7)/(12)=(7)/(12)*5

Have a nice day!
