Answer 2

Hey there!

3/5

= 3 ÷ 5

= 0.60

= 60%

• So, we’re looking for something that’s equivalent to 0.60 or 60%

Option A.
15/20

= 15 ÷ 20

= 15 ÷ 5 / 20 ÷ 5

= 3 / 5

= 3 ÷ 5

= 0.60

= 60%
So, Option A. could possibly be your equivalent to your fraction

Option B.
6/8

= 6 ÷ 8

= 6 ÷ 2 / 8 ÷ 2

= 3 / 4

= 3 ÷ 4

= 0.75

= 75%
So, Option B. isn’t equivalent because it’s too big and not what we’re looking for!

Option C.
30/50

= 30 ÷ 50

= 30 ÷ 5 / 50 ÷ 5

= 6 / 10

= 6 ÷ 2 / 10 ÷ 2

= 3 / 5

= 3 ÷ 5

= 0.60

= 60%
So, Option C. could possibly be your equivalent to your fraction.

Option D.

12/20

= 12 ÷ 20

= 12 ÷ 2 / 20 ÷ 2

= 6 / 10

= 6 ÷ 2 / 10 ÷ 2

= 3 / 5

= 3 ÷ 5

= 0.60

= 60%

So, Option D. could possibly be your equivalent to your fraction.

To sum it all up, your answer is:

Option B. 6/8

Good luck on your assignment & enjoy your day!
