Your teacher probably wants you to find the common multiple of 2, 5, 6, and 8.
The simpler way is to convert each of these fractions to decimals.
1/2 = 0.5
2/5 = 0.4
3/6 = 0.5
3/8 = 0.375
4/6 = 0.67
please show how you converted
1/2 = 0.5
2/5 = 0.4
3/6 = 0.5
3/8 = 0.375
4/6 = 0.67
I used a calculator and divided the numerator by the denominator.
so if she ran further on saturday?
what am i looking for?
You're looking for the distance she ran on Saturday.
yes how do you do that? please show me how that is done? how do i find what she ran on saturday?
Which decimal is larger than 0.5?
are you just doubling what she ran on friday?
4/6 = 0.67
The question just asks how far she ran on Saturday.
You're answer of 4/6 is correct.
thank you it makes sense.
