Express the fraction(s) 6/7 and 12/10 as the sum of two or three equal fractional parts. Rewrite each as a multiplication equation. Any help is appreciated.
(60/70) + (84/70) = 144/70 = 2 4/70 = 2 2
/35
(6/7) * (12/10) = 72/70 = 1 2/70 = 1 1/35
not helpful!!!
idk if ur right
6 plus 6
To express a fraction as the sum of two or three equal fractional parts, you need to find a common denominator for the fractions involved.
Let's start with the fraction 6/7.
To express 6/7 as the sum of two equal fractional parts, you need to divide the numerator (6) by 2, and keep the same denominator (7). This gives you (6/7) = (3/7) + (3/7).
As a multiplication equation, it can be written as: 6/7 = (1/2) * (3/7) + (1/2) * (3/7).
To express 6/7 as the sum of three equal fractional parts, you need to divide the numerator (6) by 3, and keep the same denominator (7). This gives you (6/7) = (2/7) + (2/7) + (2/7).
As a multiplication equation, it can be written as: 6/7 = (1/3) * (2/7) + (1/3) * (2/7) + (1/3) * (2/7).
Now let's move on to the fraction 12/10.
To express 12/10 as the sum of two equal fractional parts, you need to divide both the numerator (12) and the denominator (10) by their greatest common divisor, which is 2. This gives you (12/10) = (6/5) + (6/5).
As a multiplication equation, it can be written as: 12/10 = (1/2) * (6/5) + (1/2) * (6/5).
To express 12/10 as the sum of three equal fractional parts, you need to divide both the numerator (12) and the denominator (10) by their greatest common divisor, which is 2. This gives you (12/10) = (4/5) + (4/5) + (4/5).
As a multiplication equation, it can be written as: 12/10 = (1/3) * (4/5) + (1/3) * (4/5) + (1/3) * (4/5).
By dividing the numerators by the same number (2 or 3) and keeping the same denominator, you are dividing the fraction into equal parts. This allows you to express the fraction as the sum of those equal parts.
