Question

Help me to solve this problem with explaining please

Answer 1

Well if you had 4 ounces of vanilla and the total milkshake was 12 then 12 would become the denominator and the 4 is what part of the milkshake is so 4 is the numerator and that would make it 4/12 and then you can simplify 4/12 and it would = 2/6

Hope this helped :)

Answer 2

The total amount is 12 ounces therefore you can use that as your denominator.
4 ounces out of it are vanilla and the other 8 are chocolate.
4 out of 12 is vanilla . This can also be written as 4/12.
4/12 can be your first fraction.
The second one can be a simplified version of 4/12.
The simplified version would be 1/3.
Your two fractions would be 4/12 and 1/3.

Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck Studying :)
