Answer: 6/8 , 9/12 , 12/16 , 15/20, ect...

Explanation:

  • Its simple once you get the hang of it:)
  • First multiply the numerator(3) and denominator(4) by any number(2,3,4,5,6,7,8,ect...).

Example:3*2 = 6

4*2 8

You can check if it is equivalent by dividing the numerator and denominator by 2

Example:6 divided by 2= 3

4 divided by 2 4

You can replace 2 with 3,4,5,6 ect...

3/4 multiplied by 3 =9/12, 3/4 multiplied by 4 is 12/16, 3/4 multiplied by 5 is 15/20.

Hope this helps, let me know if you want more examples.

Find an equivalent fraction for the fraction below. 3/4


\blue\textsf{\textbf{\underline{\underline{Answer and How to Solve:-}}}}

If fractions are equivalent, they are equal to each other.

An example of a fraction equal to 3/4 is:-


\bold{\displaystyle(6)/(8)} \dashleftarrow\sf{The\:numerator\:and\:denominator\:are\:multiplied\:by\:2}

This is just one example; in fact, there are infinitely many fractions equivalent to 3/4; you can multiply the numerator & denominator by 2:

6/8 = 12/16 =24/32...

You can also multiply by 3:-

9/12 =12/36...

You can multiply by 4, 5, 6, 7, 8....

Overall, you can multiply by any number you wish. As long as you multiply the numerator and denominator by the same number, you will get a fraction that's equivalent to the original fraction.

Good luck.
