Question

Mera painted equal sections of her bedroom wall to make a pattern. She painted 2/5 of the wall white and 1/2 of the wall lavender . Write an equivalent fraction for each fraction using a common denominator.

Answer 1

2/5 and 1/2 can go into 10.

So, 2/5*2 = 4/10
and, 1/2*5 = 5/10.
Got it?
