To begin with, equivalent fractions represent the same part of a whole number. So I need to find a fraction, with a denominator of 20, that is the same value as 1/2:
1/2 = ?/20
1*10/2*10 = 10/20
Since the denominator needed to be 20, I multiplied the numerator and the denominator (1/2) by 10 to get 10/20. So, 1/2 and 10/20 are equivalent.

Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a triangle is given by
where
b is the base
h is the height
Here we have an equilateral triangle, which has the 3 sides of the same length.
Let's call L the length of one side.
We know that the perimeter of the triangle is
p = 9 in
The perimeter is the sum of the three sides, so:
Therefore, we find the length of the side:
Therefore the length is the base of the triangle,
The height can be calculated by considering half triangle: the hypothenuse is equal to L, while one side is equal to half the base (b/2), therefore the height is given by Pythagorean's theorem:
Therefore, the area of the triangle is:
