Question

Find the numerator for the equivalent fraction. 3/8 = ?/24 9 3 6 8

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct option is A) 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided fraction.

$\frac{3}{8} = \frac{?}{24}$

Replace ? with x and solve the above fraction for x.

$\frac{3}{8} = \frac{x}{24}$

Multiply both the sides by 24.

$\frac{3}{8}\times 24 = \frac{x}{24}\times 24$

$3\times 3 = x$

$x=9$

Hence, the value of ? or x should be 9.

The correct option is A) 9.

Answer 2

Notice the denominator is multiplied by 3, do the same to the numerator: 3*3=9
so 9 is the answer
