first you need to find a common denominator do you know how to do that?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I dunno
OpenStudy (671grains):
I will give you an example on how to do that
OpenStudy (671grains):
so let say you need to fin out which one is larger from 2/10 and 3/6 the common denominator would be 60

so you would multiply 2/10 by 6 and 3/6 by 10 which would give you 12/60 and 30/60 do you understand?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
No
OpenStudy (671grains):
what part don't you understand
OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you understand how i turned the 2/10 into 12/60 and the 3/6 into 30/60
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no
OpenStudy (671grains):
ok so what i did was multiply 2/10 by 6 and the 3/6 by 10 so that way I would get both factors to have the same denominator of 60
OpenStudy (671grains):
if that doesn't make sense i don't know how else to help you

do you want me to give you the answer and then you can get help from your teacher
OpenStudy (anonymous):
mhmmm
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Sure I guess
OpenStudy (671grains):
it would be B
OpenStudy (671grains):
the common denominator was 280

It is C because you multiply 2/9 by 11 and then 3/11 by 9
OpenStudy (671grains):
I hope I helped you at least a little
