what ration is equivalent 14/15
What are your choices? What is your answer?
Multiply, both the numerator and denominator by anything and it will still be the same ratio
To find an equivalent ratio to 14/15, you need to multiply or divide both the numerator (top number) and the denominator (bottom number) of the ratio by the same non-zero number. This ensures that the ratio remains the same, but the numbers are different. Let's find an equivalent ratio:
Step 1: Choose a non-zero number to multiply or divide both the numerator and denominator by. Let's choose 2.
Step 2: Multiply both the numerator and denominator by 2:
14 * 2 = 28 (new numerator)
15 * 2 = 30 (new denominator)
Therefore, an equivalent ratio to 14/15 is 28/30.
Alternatively, you could also divide both the numerator and denominator by the greatest common divisor (GCD) of 14 and 15 to simplify the ratio. The GCD of 14 and 15 is 1, so dividing both by 1 does not change the ratio.
Therefore, the simplified equivalent ratio is still 14/15.
