A. 1/3 x 45 < 45
Explanation:
1/3 x 45 is 15, so the comparison is correct because 15 is less than 45.
the rest of the choices are incorrect because:
B. 60 < 60 x 3/4 is wrong because 60 x 3/4 = 45 which is LESS than 60, not greater
C. 20 x 1/5 >20 is wrong because 20 x 1/5 = 4 which is LESS than 20, not greater
D. 25 < 2/3 x 25 is wrong because 2/3 x 25 = 16 2/3 which is LESS than 25, not greater
Have a nice day (brainliest pls tysm!)
Nonequivalent fractions are not equal to each other. To determine if two fractions are nonequivalent, you must also cross multiply. For example, to determine if 1/3 and 2/5 are equivalent, you must multiply 1 times 5, which equals 5, and 3 times 2, which equals 6.
