Equivalent fractions can be found by multiplying numerator and denominator by the same number.

for example : 2/5 * 3/3 = 6/15......2/5 and 6/15 are equivalent. Just like 2/5 * 4/4 = 8/20......2/5 and 8/20 are equivalent...so basically, if u multiply the numerator by a certain number, and the denominator by that same number, u will get an equivalent fraction.

Now to ur problem...
   x             54
------    =   -----
   7             42

now look at ur denominators....7 x what = 42 ? 7 x 6 = 42...so u have multiplied the denominator by 6....so u would have to multiply the numerator by 6.....or divide by 6....54/6 = 9.....or 9 x 6 = 54. So that missing value is 9.

9/7 = 54/42

check..
9/7 * 6/6 = 54/42 (equivalent)

Multiply. (-5 5/8) • (-2 1/3) What is the product?​
lions [1.4K]

Answer:

105/8 = 13 1/8 = 13.125

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to turn the (-5 5/8) into a mixed number. The mixed number you should be getting is - 45/8. The second step is to convert the (-2 1/3) into a mixed number as well, your second mixed number should be -7/3. Next multiply the two fractions, - 45/8 x (-7/3) = 315/24.

We can simplify 315/24 by dividing by 3, so you'll divide 315 divided by 3 and 24 divided by 3 and you should get ... 105/8. So 105/ 8 is equal to

13 1/8. If you need this fraction in decimal form it is 13.125.
