LAst year, 3/8 of Ms. Oliver's students were boys. This year, she has the same number of students, and 9/24 of them are boys. Draw a picture to show that Ms. Oliver has had the same fraction of boys each year
On this website, we sadly can't draw pictures. They did have the Same amount. If you simplify 9/24 by 3/3 like this 9/24 (3/3) 3/8 then you get 3/8. It's basically just that you divide by 3/3 to make an equivilancy. In a picture form just try to draw a model of 8 squares shading in 3 of them. Split the picture horizontially 3 times to get 9/24. If this is incorrect please tell me.
