5th grade math. Correct answer will be marked brainliest.

Least common denominator of 2 and 8: 8

5 x 1 = 5

8 x 1 = 8

1 x 4 = 4

2 x 4 = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

5/8 and 1/2 are not equivalent; the wording is weird on this question, it almost makes it sound as if it wants you to make 5/8 and 1/2 equivalent fractions.

I assume it only wants you to set it up so that in part 2 you will be able to easily figure out how much wire Mr. Barber has used total. Which will be 9/8 yards, by the way. Alternatively, 1 1/8 yards.

hi there!

the answer will be d: 2
