FRACTIONS 1


Give 3 equivalent fractions to 3/7.

Solution

To get an equivalent fraction, you have to multiply a given fraction by n/n where n is a whole number and n is not zero.

For the 1st fraction we multiply by2/2.
3    x    2   =   6
7          2      14

For the 2nd fraction we multiply by5/5.
3    x    5   =   15
7          5        35

For the 3rd fraction we multiply by10/10.
3    x    10   =   30
7          10        70


Hence the answers are 6/14, 15/35 and 30/70
