Question

Which of the following fractions are equivalent to 1/3?

Answer 1

Answer:

A. $\frac{6}{18}$

C.$\frac{25}{75}$

D. $\frac{19}{57}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to determine which of the options will simplify to $\frac{1}{3}$.

Let us first of all simplify all the given options, then we can select the ones that are equivalent to $\frac{1}{3}$.

The first fraction is $\frac{6}{18}$.

This is the same as $\frac{6}{3\times 6}$.

We cancel the common factor to obtain;

$\frac{1}{3}$

For the second option we have $\frac{9}{36}=\frac{9}{9\times 4}=\frac{1}{4}$.

For the third option we have $\frac{25}{75}=\frac{25}{3\times25}=\frac{1}{3}$

For the fourth option we have$\frac{19}{57}=\frac{19}{3\times 19}=\frac{1}{3}$

Therefore the correct options are

A. $\frac{6}{18}$

C.$\frac{25}{75}$

D. $\frac{19}{57}$
