+831 WHICH 2 FRACTIONS ARE EQUIVOLENT TO 24/84?
6/42 AND 2/7
12/42 AND 3/7
6/21 AND 2/6
12/42 AND 2/7
+576 6/21 and 12/42. Here is how we know:
24/84 is not a simplified fraction. In order to simplify it we look at what common factors 24 and 84 have. A simpler way to think of this is we look for numbers that can evenly divide 24 and 84. There are a couple of numbers that fit this but for simplicity lets try 2. We are going to divide both numbers by two and that will give us an equivalent fraction.
(24/2)/(84/2)=12/42 and what do you know, one of our answers pops right up! Let's continue this process and divide our two new numbers by two and see what happens.
(12/2)/(42/2)=6/21 and this is our second answer.
+3454 Again, see if 24 and 84 can both be divided by the same number.
This will reduce the fraction for you, and you should be able to figure out the answer from there.
