Answer:
i know it’s been months since you posted this question but...
Step-by-step explanation:
2. c) 1/2, 9/18 / 9 = 1/2
3. d) 13/16, 26/32 / 2 = 13/16
5. d) 5/12, 10/24 / 2 = 5/12
1. b) simplified, you can’t simplify 8/9, it’s already smaller.
4. b) Nicholas did not divide the numerator and denominator by the same number, the GCF [greatest common factor]. 4/5 is not equivalent to 20/30. He should have divided by 10. 20/30 = 2/3.
why does that say 20/24 tho?- i think it meant 20/30.
i hope this helped! also, a definition of gcf:
GCF - A set of numbers' greatest common factor (GCF) is the largest factor that all of the numbers share. Twelve, twenty, and twenty-four, for example, all have two common factors: two and four. The GCF of 12, 20, and 24 is 4 since the highest is 4. The GCF method is often used to identify common denominators.
