Question

Use multiplication to find three equivalent ratios (8 : 12 ) please help !!

Answer 1

The key idea here is that if you multiply or divide both numerator and denominator of a fraction by the same number, you'll get an equivalent fraction.

So, starting with 8/12, let's choose three numbers, say 2, 5, and 10.

So, if we multiply both numerator and denominator by the same number, we'll get equivalent fractions.

In the first case, we have

$\dfrac{8\cdot 2}{12\cdot 2}=\dfrac{16}{24}$

In the second case,

$\dfrac{8\cdot 5}{12\cdot 5}=\dfrac{40}{60}$

Finally,

$\dfrac{8\cdot 10}{12\cdot 10}=\dfrac{80}{120}$
