I am a fraction equivalent to 2/4.The sum of my numerator and my denominator is 21. what fraction am I?
7/14
2/4 = 1/2
7/14 = 1/2
7+14=21
To find the fraction that satisfies the given conditions, we can set up an equation.
Let's call the unknown fraction "x". Since the fraction is equivalent to 2/4, we can write:
x = 2/4
To find the value of x, we need to solve for it.
We know that the sum of the numerator and denominator of x is 21. In other words, the numerator plus the denominator is equal to 21:
Numerator + Denominator = 21
Since the numerator of x is 2 and the denominator is 4, we can substitute these values into the equation:
2 + 4 = 21
Simplifying this equation, we get:
6 = 21
However, this equation is not true. So it seems there is no fraction that satisfies the given conditions of being equivalent to 2/4 and having a sum of 21 for its numerator and denominator.
