Question

Andre took 6 kicks and made 4 goals: 4 out of six. Tom wants to take more than 20 kicks and make a equivalent fraction to Andre. What are two possible fractions of goals Tom can make?

Answer 1

Answer:

Tom can either take 24 kicks and make 16 goals or 30 kicks and make 20 goals.

Step-by-step explanation:

Andre made 4 goals out of 6 kicks.

Tom wants to take more than 20 kicks and to make an equivalent fraction to Andre.

Possibility 1:

Let Tom makes 24 kicks.

To get 24, we need to multiply the denominator of Andre's fraction by 4.

So, $\frac{4}{6} =\frac{16}{24}$

Therefore, Tom can take 24 kicks and make 16 goals.

Possibility 2:

Let Tom makes 30 kicks.

To get 30, we need to multiply the denominator of Andre's fraction by 5.

So, $\frac{4}{6} =\frac{20}{30}$

Therefore, Tom can take 30 kicks and make 20 goals.
