Answer 4

so which one do you think is equal to \(\dfrac{15}{1}\)

Answer 5

thats what i was having a hard time with i couldn't decide whether it was a or b

Answer 6

alright so if you have 15/1=15 which choice do you believe might equal to 15?

Answer 7

umm a

Answer 8

simplify \(\dfrac{30}{3}\) and you get \(\dfrac{10}{1}\)

Answer 9

so not equal to \(\dfrac{15}{1}\)

Answer 10

so it's not going to be A

Answer 11

ok

Answer 12

and it's not going to be B or C because they flip it

Answer 13

alright so if you put each of the answers as a fraction and divide you will find your answer

Answer 14

so check D
\(\dfrac{60}{4}\)

Answer 15

if you divide \(\dfrac{60}{4}\) by 4, you get \(\dfrac{15}{1}\)

Answer 16

so simplify so i tried simplifying every thing else and i got b

Answer 17

B is just like A just flipped so for A you got \(\dfrac{10}{1}\), for B it's just flipped = \(\dfrac{1}{10}\)

Answer 18
