4. \[\frac{6}{50} = \frac{3}{25}\]

8. \[\frac{8}{11}\]

Answer 2

Pinky: At the bottom of each screen like this one is a box in which you see "Type your answer here" or something like that. Do that, and then click on the Post button (below, right).
In 12/8, linh correctly recognized that 4 is common to both 12 and 8, so he factored out the 4 and was left with
\[\frac{ 12 }{ 8 }=\frac{ 4(3) }{ 4(2)}.\] Then he cancelled out the 4, which again was correct.

Answer 3

Pinky, please try that yourself. How would you explain the solution of the next problem on your list?
