What number will make the fractions equivalent?
712 = ?48
that's wrong
To find the number that will make the fractions equivalent, we need to find the least common multiple (LCM) of the denominators.
The denominators in this case are 12 and 48. To find the LCM, we can list the multiples of each number until we find a common multiple:
Multiples of 12: 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, ...
Multiples of 48: 48, 96, 144, 192, ...
From the lists, we can see that the LCM of 12 and 48 is 48.
Therefore, multiplying both the numerator and denominator of the fraction 712/48 by 1 will make the fractions equivalent.
So, 712/48 is already in its simplest form and cannot be reduced further.
To find the number that will make the fractions equivalent, you need to find the least common denominator (LCD) of 7/12 and ?/48.
What number will make the fractions equivalent?
7/12 = ?/48
What number will make the fractions equivalent?
7/12 = ?/48
To make the fractions equivalent, we need to find a number that can be multiplied to both the numerator and denominator of one fraction to get the numerator and denominator of the other fraction, respectively.
In this case, we have the fractions:
712/48 = ?/?
To find the missing numbers, we need to identify the relationship between the numerators and denominators. We can simplify the fractions to their lowest terms to make this relationship more clear.
The fraction 712/48 can be simplified by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor (GCD), which is 8. Dividing both numbers by 8, we get:
(712/8) / (48/8) = 89/6
Now, we can see that to go from 48 to 6, we need to multiply by 8. Therefore, to make the fractions equivalent, we should multiply the numerator and denominator of the second fraction by 8:
89/6 = 89 * 8 / 6 * 8
Simplifying this expression, we get:
712/48 = 712/48
So, the number that makes the fractions equivalent is 8.
To find the number that will make the fractions equivalent, you need to find the least common denominator (LCD) of 712 and 48.
The prime factorization of 712 is 2^3 * 89.
The prime factorization of 48 is 2^4 * 3.
To find the LCD, take the highest power of each prime factor that appears in either number. Therefore, the LCD of 712 and 48 is 2^4 * 3 * 89 = 3,024.
Therefore, 712 and 48 will be equivalent fractions when multiplied by the number 3,024.
