How do I draw a tape diagram showing the equivalence of 24:32 and 48:64

Start by simplifying both fractions


</p><p>(24)/(32)=(12)/(16)=(6)/(8)=(3)/(4) \\</p><p>(48)/(64)=(24)/(32)=(12)/(16)=(6)/(8)=(3)/(4)</p><p>

As you can see both fractions simplify to a same value hence the equality


(24)/(32)=(48)/(64)

stands.

Hope this helps.
