If you multiply/divide the numerator and denominator of a fraction by the same number, you will get an equivalent fraction.

For the first one, 6 is in the new numerator. Let's divide this by the original numerator to see what they did.

30/6 = 5

So they divided the numerator by 5. To get an equivalent fraction, we must do the same to the denominator.

35/5 = 7

So our new equivalent fraction is 6/7.

For the second one, the new denominator is 5. Let's see what they did to get this.

40/5 = 8

So they divided the denominator by 8 to get 5, let's do the same to the numerator:

8/8=1

So we have 1/5.

For the last one, they have 4 in the new denominator. Let's see what they did to get this denominator:

20/4 = 5

So they divided the denominator by 5, let's do the same thing to the numerator:

15/5 = 3

So we have 3/4.

30/35 = 6/7

8/40 = 1/5

15/20 = 3/4

This would help :))
