First set up an equation as your approach. I will use the equation x+4x=24 because that way you are saying that something pluse itself times 4 equals 24 which is what you want.

simplify the equation

5x=24

x=24/5

So you know onw piece will be 24/5 of a foot and the ither qould be that times 4 so 96/24 of a foot. In decimals it would be 4.8 and 19.2

How do you make this into a equivalent to 5/12 please help me ASAP
antoniya [11.8K]
Hey there! :)

To find equivalent fractions, divide or multiply the numerator AND denominator by the same number.

Example: Multiply by 2

5 × 2 = 10
12 × 2 = 24

10/24

Example: Multiply by 3

5 × 3 = 15
12 × 3 = 36

15/36

Two fractions equivalent to 5/12 are:

- 10/24
- 15/36

Hope this helps :)
