Which equivalent fractions can be use to find the sum of 2/8 and 3/9
I would first reduce the fraction so I can deal with smaller numbers
2/8= 1/4
3/9= 1/3
1/4=3/12
1/3=4/12
adding
7/12
The equivalent fractions that can be used to evaluate the sum of 2/8 and 3/9 are 1/3 and 1/4
The fractions are given as:
2/8 and 3/9
The sum of the fractions is represented as:
\(Sum = \frac 28 + \frac 39\)
Reduce the fractions
\(Sum = \frac 14 + \frac 13\)
Take LCM
\(Sum = \frac {4 + 3}{12}\)
Add the numerators
\(Sum = \frac {7}{12}\)
Hence, the equivalent fractions that can be used to evaluate the sum of 2/8 and 3/9 are 1/3 and 1/4
