Answer:
6/8=18/24
2/12 = 4/24
Step-by-step explanation:
If you want to make the fractions the same, look at the denominator.
6/8 and 2/12
what number can both 8 and 12 go into?
It goes into 24
so 6/8 would be 6*3 and 8*3 because whatever you do to the bottom, you do to the top and 8*3 is 24 so 6*3 is 18 and for 2/12 you multiply both by 2 since 12*2=24 and 2*2=4
I will do 6/8 only. You do the other fraction.
Pick a number, any number. How about 2?
Multiply the top and bottom number by 2.
6 x 2 = 12
8 x 2 = 16
We get 12/16.
Reducing 12/16 to the lowest terms we get 3/4.
Another fraction similar to 6/8 is 3/4. In fact, they are equivalent fractions.
Do the other fraction in like fashion.
Note: Each fraction given has more than one similar fraction.
