brought to a veterinary hospital
were rabbits, 1/2 were cats, and 1/4
were dogs. Which kind of animal
did the vet see the most of that
day?

Answer 1

Well if you look at it 1/4 is converted to 2/8 if your using eighths and 1/2 would be 4/8 so cats would be the most

Answer 2

Answer:

The Vet saw most of the Cats (2/4 or 1/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

We know some information...

2/8 = Rabbits, 1/2 = Cats, 1/4 = Dogs.

Total there is 1 Whole of Animals, or 4/4.

Let's make their denominators the same to understand easier.

2/8 is nothing but 1/4

And 1/2 is nothing but 2/4

So the Values are 1/4(rabbits), 1/4 Dogs, and 2/4 Cats.

We know that 1/4 (Rabbits) and another 1/4(Dogs) is the same value,

So 1/4 (Rabbit or Dog) < 2/4 (Cat)

This means the Vet Saw most of the Cats or more cats than any other animal
