Answer: Each fraction is greater than the previous fraction.
Step-by-step explanation:
The fractions given are:
2/3, 4/6, 8/12, 16/24
Note that
2/3 = 4/6 = 8/12 = 16/32
The Fractions are all equal. Each fraction is equivalent to 2/3
The pattern used here is:
2/3 × 2/2 = 4/6
4/6 × 2/2 = 8/12
8/12 × 2/2 = 16/24
16/24 × 2/2 = 32/48
Each fraction is equal to the previous fraction in the pattern multiplied by 2/2
Also, the next fraction in the pattern is 32/48.
The statement that "Each fraction is greater than the previous fraction" is incorrect. The fractions are all equal.
