Mrs. Carmel serves 6/8 of a loaf bread with dinner. Write a fraction with a denominator of 4 that is equivalent to 6/8
3/4 is the answer because if you divided 8 by 2 it gave you the denominator 4, and since you have to do the same thing you do to the bottom to the top, you divide 6 by 2 and it gives you 3, making 3/4's as your final answer
Answer:
The required fraction is \(\frac{3}{4}\).
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that Mrs. Carmel serves 6/8 of a loaf bread with dinner.
We have to find a fraction, which is equivalent to \(\frac{6}{8}\) with a denominator of 4.
The given fraction is
\(\frac{6}{8}\)
It can be written as
\(\frac{6}{8}=\frac{3\times 2}{4\times 2}\)
Cancel out the common factor 2.
\(\frac{6}{8}=\frac{3}{4}\)
The denominator value is 4 and it is is equivalent to \(\frac{6}{8}\) .
Therefore the required fraction is \(\frac{3}{4}\).
