What are the equivalent fractions to 3/7?
They can be: %6/14%, %9/21%, %12/28% and so on.
Explanation:
If you have a fraction %a/b% then any fraction %(ka)/(kb)% for a natural number %k% is equivalent to %a/b%, because it can be reduced by %k%.Example:%3/7=(32)/(72)=6/14%%3/7=(33)/(73)=9/21%Also if %a% and %b% have any common factors greater than %1% you can get other equivalent fractions by reducing original fraction by the factors. For example:%9/12=(33)/(34)=3/4%. So %3/4% is equivalent to %9/12%If a/b be any fraction
Then
Ka/kb is equivalent faction to a/b
For any natural no k . So
Here is 3/7
Now
Equivalent faction to this is
6/14
Also 9/21 is equivalent to it and
12/28 is equivalent to it etc
