i cannot remember how to figure this out. I need to know how to figure out what is between 3/4 and 17/20 on this number line .....
1/2 11/20 3/5 13/20 7/10 3/4 ... 17/20 9/10 1
thank you
change all the fractions so that they have a denominator of 20
your sequence becomes ....
10/20 11/20 12/20 13/20 14/20 15/20 .. 17/20 18/20 19/20 20/20
the missing number should be obvious
btw, you forgot the 19/20 in your list
Thank you!!!!
To figure out what is between 3/4 and 17/20 on the number line, you need to find a common denominator for these fractions.
The denominators for 3/4 and 17/20 are 4 and 20 respectively. The least common denominator (LCD) is the smallest multiple of both 4 and 20, which is 20.
Now, we need to convert both fractions so that they have the same denominator of 20.
For 3/4, multiply both the numerator and denominator by 5 to get 15/20.
For 17/20, no conversion is needed since the denominator is already 20.
So, now we can rearrange the fractions in ascending order:
1/2, 11/20, 3/5, 13/20, 15/20, 7/10, 3/4, 17/20, 9/10, 1.
Therefore, between 3/4 and 17/20 on the number line, there are 15/20 and 7/10.
