Question

What statement is NOT true about the pattern shown below? 2/3, 4/6, 8/12, 16/24 Choices: Each fraction is greater than the previous fraction. Each fraction is equal to the previous fraction in the pattern multiplied by 2/2 Each fraction is equivalent to 2/3 The next fraction in the pattern is 32/48. Plsss help me out I need the answer like, rn. (That means SAY THE ANSWER RIGHT NOW!)

Answer 1

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.
