What does it mean for two fractions to be equivalent? For two ratios to be equivalent?

Mathematics

poizon [28]3 years ago

Answer:

Equivalent fractions and ratios mean that when simplified, they are the same one fraction or ratio. see examples below.

Step-by-step explanation:

For example, the fraction 1/2 is the same as 2/4 or 15/30 because when you simplify them, they are still 1/2. Therefore they are equivalent.

For example, the ratio 1:2 is the same as 5:10 or 10:20 since when broken down they all come down to 1:2. Hence they are equivalent.

Hope this answers your question.

HELP!! WITH THESES MATH QUESTION! WILL MARK BRAINLIEST 70 POINTS!!! PLEASE HELP
Cloud [144]

1. Let hardcover books = X

Paperback books would be 4x -3 ( 3 less than 4 times)

Now you have:

X + 4x-3 = 447

Simplify:

5x - 3 = 447

Add 3 to each side:

5x = 450

Divide both sides by 5:

x = 450/5

x = 90

He has 90 hardcover books.

2. 300 miles / 25 miles per gallon = 12 gallons of gas.

12 gallons x $$ per gallon = $48 dollars

3. Subtract base pay from total:

1916 - 800 = 1,116 worth of commissions.

Divide commissions by percentage:

1116 / 0.09 = $12,400 total sales.

4.

Find the median of the heights: 65-50 = 15. 15/2 = 7.5

Median = 50+7.5 = 57.5

The equation would be |h-57.5| < 7.5
