Rename fraction to similar fraction 6/8 and2/12=

6/8=18/24

2/12 = 4/24

Step-by-step explanation:

If you want to make the fractions the same, look at the denominator.

6/8 and 2/12

what number can both 8 and 12 go into?

It goes into 24

so 6/8 would be 6*3 and 8*3 because whatever you do to the bottom, you do to the top and 8*3 is 24 so 6*3 is 18 and for 2/12 you multiply both by 2 since 12*2=24 and 2*2=4

I will do 6/8 only. You do the other fraction.

Pick a number, any number. How about 2?

Multiply the top and bottom number by 2.

6 x 2 = 12

8 x 2 = 16

We get 12/16.

Reducing 12/16 to the lowest terms we get 3/4.

Another fraction similar to 6/8 is 3/4. In fact, they are equivalent fractions.

Do the other fraction in like fashion.

Note: Each fraction given has more than one similar fraction.

option a is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

scale factor: it is used to find proportional measurements.

proportions means having the same ratio.

scale factor is the ratio of the model measurement to the actual measurement in a simplest form.

or we can say that the ratio of any two corresponding lengths in two similar geometric figures

if the scale factor is more than 1, then it is an enlargement,

if the scale factor less than 1, then it is a reduction.

given the two geometric figure:

by definition of proportions, we have
