Can someone help me please 3/8 = ?/24 5/13 = ?/52 7/12 = ?/36
8/15 = ?/45 3/5 = ?/75 It's a middle school question supply the missing information please help thank you
here is the easy way... u are dealing with equivalent fractions. Equivalent fractions can be found by multiplying the numerator and the denominator by the same number.
3 ? ---- = ----- 8 24
okay....8 x what is 24 ? 8 x 3 is 24....so u multiplied the denominator by 3, now multiply the numerator by 3.....3 x 4 = 12 so ur missing number is 12. 3/8 = 12/24
5/13 = ?/52.....13 x 3 = 52....multiplied denominator by 3, so we multiply numerator by 3 giving us 15. 5/13 = 15/52
7/12 = x/36...another way u can do it is cross multiply (12)(x) = (7)(36) 12x = 252 x = 252/12 x = 21......so 7/12 = 21/36
