Hey there!
ORIGINAL QUESTION: “FINDING OUT WHATS EQUIVALENT TO 5/6”
We’re NOT sure what your equation should look like so we will make it like:
5/6 = z/6
CURRENT EQUATION:
5/6 = z/6
FIRST: CROSS MULTIPLY the NUMBERS
5(6) = z(6)
5(6) = 6(z)
NEW EQUATION (TEMPORARILY)
30 = 6z
6z = 30
DIVIDE 6 to BOTH SIDES
6z/6 = 30/6
CANCEL out: 6/6 because it give you 1
KEEP: 30/6 because it help solve for the z-value
NEW EQUATION: z = 30/6
SIMPLIFY IT!
z = 5
Thus, your answer is: 5/6 = 5/6
FUN FACT: THERE IS MULTIPLE FRACTIONS THAT ARE EQUIVALENT TO THE GIVEN FRACTION.
EXAMPLE(S):
• 10/12
• 20/24
• 30/36
• 40/48
• 50/60
• 60/72
ANYWAY!
Good luck on your assignment & enjoy your day!
