Answer:

4/8 = 6/8 = 4/8

Step-by-step explanation:

The common denominator would be the biggest value from your fractions or you can make a number where all of the denominators can multiply up to then simplify the problem later

if the denominators were odd and you cant use one of denominators present you can multiply them together then simplify down 4/8 = 1/2 8/16= 8/16 divide it by two since you can and you get 4/8 then it goes by two again 2/4 then 1/2

OK SO HERES THE PROBLEM. MY BRAIN HURTS. PLZZZ help me with this math problem

Oh Foxy, Foxy, how totally debilitated you must be ! Try to relax. Nobody
enjoys a painful brain, and believe me, this problem is not worth it.

Let me put it to you this way: What if the problem said . . .

-- Demarcus has $8 more than his sister.
-- His sister has $4.
-- How much money ' M ' does Demarcus have ?

If your brain didn't hurt, you could quickly solve this right in there.
You would know that Demarcus' money ' M ' = 8 + 4 .

That's almost exactly what the problem does say.
Except it doesn't say he has "$8 more than his sister",
it says he has "at least" that much.
So you know that ' M ' is not exactly = 8 + 4, but that's the least it could be.
The actual amount of ' M ' is more than that.

Surely you can handle it from here, even with half of your brain
tied behind your back.

Take a good hard look at ' A ', and then go lie down.
