So here we're dealing with equivalent fractions.
It's really simple to find the answer, so I'll try to explain the best I can.

2 dogs / 5 cats is really just 2/5.
If we want to find an equivalent fraction, we have to multiply the numerator and the denominator by the same number.

Currently the number of cats is 5, and we need it to be 140. What we need to do is find the number it has to be multiplied by to equal 140, which is 140 divided by 5. 140 divided by 5 is 28, so 5 x 28 = 140!

We need to multiply the denominator (5) by 28, so that we can get 140. What we have now is ?/140.

Like I said, to find an equivalent fraction, we need to multiply the numerator by the same number as we did the denominator, which is 28!

2 x 28 = 56.

So 2/5 is the same as 56/140.

The answer is D) 56 Dogs/140 Cats.

Hope this helps!
If you're confused about anything leave me a reply and I'll try to explain the best that I can!

PLEASE HELP ME PLSSSS I WILL MARK YOUR BRAINLIEST Kalie puts 6 stickers on her desk. Each sticker is 1/2 centimeters wide by 3/5
Damm [24]

Answer:

Total area: 9/5 square cm, or in decimal form 1.8 square cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that each sticker is 1/2 cm by 3/5 cm, therefore they area is 1/2 times 3/5 = 3/10  square cm.

since she uses 6 of them, we need to multiply the area of each by 6 in order to get the total area:

6 times 3/10 = 18/10 square cm = 9/5 square cm or in decimal form 1.8 square cm
