Question

Thinking About Fractions & Decimals 1 Here are four of the markers from the calendar pattern this month. Label each one with at least two different fraction or decimal names. 10 11 12 13 SERIE

Answer 1

11. 40/100 = 4/10

12. 2/5 = 4/10

13. 4/10 = 8/20

Step-by-step explanation:

A fraction can be written as a/b where b is the total number of divisions and a is the number of parts that you take.

So, for 11, the fraction is:

`(40)/(100)`

Because there are 100 parts and 40 of them are colored.

So, to find another equivalent fraction we can divide every number by 10 as:

`(40/10)/(100/10)=(4)/(10)`

In the same way, for 12, we get:

`\begin{gathered} (2)/(5) \\ or \\ (2*2)/(5*2)=(4)/(10) \end{gathered}`

For 13, we get:

`\begin{gathered} (4)/(10) \\ or \\ (4*2)/(10*2)=(8)/(20) \end{gathered}`
