Mira painted equal sections of her bedroom wall to make a pattern she painted 2/5 of the wall white and 1/2of the wall lavender write an equivalent fraction for each fraction using a common denominator
2/5 = 4/10
1/2 = 5/10
Ms.sue thanks you helped my life in my 4th grade homework
Math sukes lol
To find equivalent fractions for the fractions 2/5 and 1/2 with a common denominator, follow these steps:
Step 1: Find the common denominator.
The common denominator is the least common multiple (LCM) of the denominators. In this case, the denominators are 5 and 2. So, we need to find the LCM of 5 and 2, which is 10.
Step 2: Rewrite the fractions with the common denominator.
To rewrite the fractions, we need to multiply the numerator and denominator of each fraction by the same value so that the denominator becomes 10.
For 2/5:
Multiply the numerator and denominator by 2 (to get a denominator of 10):
2/5 * (2/2) = 4/10
For 1/2:
Multiply the numerator and denominator by 5 (to get a denominator of 10):
1/2 * (5/5) = 5/10
The equivalent fractions with the common denominator of 10 are:
2/5 = 4/10
1/2 = 5/10
