Question

Which is equivalent to 6/9

A. 18/36
B. 1/3
C. 3/4
D. 12/18

Answer 1

I think it's A

Answer 2

Do me a favor, simplify 6/9 to the smallest fraction you can.

Answer 3

3/4

Answer 4

No, divide the numerator by 3, and the denominator by 3...

Answer 5

6/3
---- =?
9/3

Answer 6

2/3

Answer 7

Good, now lets simplify 18/36... Divide the numerator AND the denominator by 9.

Answer 8

OOPS that was wrong. divide both by 18.

Answer 9

18/36 divide them with the greastest multiple of the denominator and numerator which is 18.

18/ 18 = 1
___ ____
36 / 18 = 2

So it's not A.

Lets try D. Simplify it. dived both sides with the GCM which is 6.

12 / 6 = 2
18/ 6 = 3

So it's D. 12/18 equals to 2/3

Answer 10

Sorry I took to long to reply my internet is running slow today.

Answer 11

Wait. I didn't explain completely. sorry. we're trying to make it equal to 6/9

If you simplify 6/9 it will equal to 2/3 also.

Answer 12

Makes sense..a little

Answer 13

Do you know how to simplify?

Answer 14

D.12/18

Answer 15

Yes,you divide it by 2 in simpliest form.Well I sort of know how to do it. When my teacher taught this like 2 or 3 years ago the kids were being wild so i'm not that good with it..Or I guess you could say im not good with math at all

Answer 16

I'll give you an example:


\[\frac{ 6 }{ 10 }\]

FIRST STEP, FIND ALL THE MULTIPLES OF BOTH NUMBERS. The multiples are the values that can multilply to equal that number. >

6: 1, 2, 3, 6
10, 1,2, 5,10

Now look at the numbers. What is the biggest/greatest multiple that BOTH the 6 and 10 have?

2 is. right?

So now divide both numbers by two to simplify it.

\[6 \div 2 = 3\]

\[10 \div 2 = 5\]

So \[6/10 simplified = 3/5\]

Answer 17

Well,thanks for showing me how to simplify correctly and for showing me,well teaching me how to solve this problem

Answer 18

You're very welcome [:
