Question

For each part below, find a giant one that will multiply the fraction on the left side of the equation to create the equivalent fraction on the right side of the equation. then complete any other missing information. answers?

Answer 1

The fractions are attached below

(a)
`(5)/(6) *(?)/(?)=(15)/(?)`

We need to find out 5 times what we multiply to get 15.

5 times 3 = 15

We multiply the left hand side fraction by 3. We multiply both numerator and denominator by 3 . 6 * 3= 18

`(5)/(6) *(3)/(3)=(15)/(?)`

`(5)/(6) *(3)/(3)=(15)/(18)`

(b)
`(?)/(3) *(?)/(?)=(4)/(6)`

We need to find out 3 times what we multiply to get 6.

3 times 2 = 6

We multiply the left hand side fraction by 2. We multiply both numerator and denominator by 3 . We know 2*2 = 4

`(?)/(3) *(2)/(2)=(?)/(6)`

`(2)/(3) *(2)/(2)=(4)/(6)`

(C)
`(?)/(2) *(?)/(?)=(8)/(16)`

We need to find out 2 times what we multiply to get 16.

2 times 8 = 16

We multiply the left hand side fraction by 8. We multiply both numerator and denominator by 8 . We know 1*8 = 8

`(?)/(2) *(8)/(8)=(8)/(16)`

`(1)/(2) *(8)/(8)=(8)/(16)`

(d)
`(?)/(4) *(?)/(?)=(6)/(24)`

We need to find out 4 times what we multiply to get 24.

4 times 6 = 24

We multiply the left hand side fraction by 6. We multiply both numerator and denominator by 6 . We know 1*6 = 6

`(?)/(4) *(6)/(6)=(6)/(24)`

`(1)/(4) *(6)/(6)=(6)/(24)`
