If 1/4 of x is 16, we multiply 16 x 4 which will give us x=64. 3/4 of 64 = 48
Minus 12 over 16 and 12 over 16
There you go!
Answer: The only correct answer is 8/18. See below
Step-by-step explanation:
All you need to do is divide the denominator of 9 into the denominator of each fraction, and multiply the numerator by the same factor like this:
4/9 = ?/36; 36/9 = 4; 4x4 =16, so we know that 4/9=16/36 NOT 20/36
4/9 = ?/18; 18/9 =2; 2x4 =8, so we know that 5/9 = 8/18 so YES.
4/9 = ?/45; 45/9=5; 5x4 = 20, so we know that 5/9 = 20/45 NOT 24/45
5/9 = ?/27; 27/9 =3; 3x5 = 15, so we know that 5/9 = 15/27 NOT 12/27
