1.   9/12   divide top and bottom by 3

     3/4

now you can multiply the top and bottom by the same number and get an equivalent fraction

3/4 * 2/2  = 6/8

3/4 * 5/5 = 15/20

these are all equivalent fractions to 9/12 = 3/4 = 6/8 = 15/20


2.  16/24  

divide the top and bottom by 8  

2/3

This is as small as it goes  (keep dividing until there is no number that will go into the top and the bottom evenly).

Which expressions are equivalent to 4^−2 ⋅7 ^-2?
Andrews [41]

Answer:

We can have several equivalents.

It can be 1/784,  28^(-2),  or  1/ (28^2)

Step-by-step explanation:

4^(-2) * 7^(-2) =  (4*7)^(-2) = 28^(-2)

or  1 / (28^2)   is another equivalent.

4^(-2) * 7^(-2) = 28^(-2)

4^(-2) * 7^(-2) = = 1/784
