Because 28 is divisible by 4 ( because 28÷4=7), we have 4/9 = 28/63;
The correct answer is 28.

Answer:

28

Explanation:

Given is a fraction with numerator 4 and denominator 9

Fraction =
(4)/(9)

We have to find an equivalent fraction for this whose denominator is 63.

We have in Mathematics, all equivalent fractions will have the same value.

Hence if denominator is x,


(x)/(63) will have same value as
(4)/(9)

i.e


(4)/(9)=(x)/(63)

Cross multiply to solve for x


9x=63(4)\\x =7(4) =28

Hence answer is 28.
