OpenStudy (anonymous):

@jadams is this two different problems or one problem?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{12}{20}=\frac{4\times 3}{4\times 5}=\frac{3}{5}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

two separate problems but counted as one

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\frac{3x+12}{5x+20}=\frac{3(x+4)}{5(x+4)}=\frac{3}{5}\]
