Question

For each fraction, write an equivalent fraction that has a denominator of 36.

1. 5/12 2. 1/6 3. 7/9

Answer 1

Explanation:

1) 5/12

To make the denominator to 36, 12 should be multiplied by 3. As we are multiplying the denominator by 3, numerator also should multiplied by 3

`(5)/(12)=(5*3)/(12*3)=(15)/(36)`

2) 1/6

`(1)/(6)=(1*6)/(6*6)=(6)/(36)\\`

3) 7/9

`(7)/(9)=(7*4)/(9*4)=(28)/(36)`
