Complete question :

Miranda is braiding her hair then she will attach beads to the braids she wants 1/3 of the beads to be red if the greatest number of beads that will fit on the braid is 12 what other fraction could represent the part of the beads that are red?

Answer:

2 / 6

Explanation:

Fraction of red beads on braid = 1/3

greatest number of braids = 12

Fraction of red beads = (1 /3) * 12 = 4 red beads

Thus implies that :

When greatest number of braids = 12

fraction of red beads) = (Number of red beads / greatest number of beads)

Fraction = 4 / 12

Divide by 2 = 2/6 (don't reduce to lowest term).
