Question

What is the missing number?

Five-sixths is equal to how many twenty-fourths?

4

5

8

twenty

Answer 1

Set two fractions equal and cross multiply.

Answer 2

(5/6) = (x/24)

6x = 5(24)
6x = 120

divided by 6 on both sides.

x = 20

Answer 3

Another way, although slower way of checking is by going through all the answers:

(5/6) = 0.833333333
(4/24) = 0.16666666
(5/24)=0.208333333
(8/24)=0.333333333
(20/24)=0.83333333=(5/6)
