Answer:
1/4 for both
Step-by-step explanation:
2/8 -- you divide 2 by 2 you get 1, 8 divided by 2 is 4 -- 1/4
3/12 -- you divide 3 by 3 you get 1, 12 divided by 3 is 4 -- 1/4

Answer: $51
60 * .15 = 9
60 - 9 = $51
ratio of 6:10, if you divide both numbers by 2 you get a ratio of 3:5
multiply by 2 you get 12:20
multiply by 1.5 you get 9:15
D is not equivalent
He made his mistake in Step 2. Tom should have subtracted 4/8 instead of 1/8. The mistake is that he was not consistent when he multiplied Denominators (bottom number) must be the same when handling fractions so Tom must multiply both the numerator and denominator by the SAME number to balance it out. 1/2 x 4/4= 4/8. Subtract. 7/8 - 4/8= 3/8. Tom has 3/8 of a gallon of paint leftover.
