Answer:
10/16 is not equivalent to ⅔.
⅛+¾=⅞
Step-by-step explanation:
To simplify to simplest form find the GCF for both and divide on each side.
[tex] \frac{10}{15} = \frac{2}{3} [/tex]
the GCF is 5, so you divide the numerator and denominator by 5 to get 2/3.
[tex] \frac{4}{6} = \frac{2}{3} [/tex]
When you divide the numerator and denominator by 2 (GCF) it would be ⅔.
[tex] \frac{12}{18} = \frac{2}{3} [/tex]
when you divide both the numerator and denominator by 6 (GCF) you get ⅔.
[tex] \frac{10}{16} = \frac{5}{8} [/tex]
when you divide the numerator and denominator by 2 (gcf) you get ⅝.
therefore, 10/16 is not equivalent.
[tex] \frac{1}{8} + \frac{3}{4} = [/tex]
Find the LCM
Least Common Multiple is 16.
8: 8, 16
4: 4, 8, 12, 16
[tex] \frac{2}{16} + \frac{12}{16} [/tex]
for ⅛ you multiply the numerator and denominator by 2 to get 2/16. do the same with 3/4 but with 4 to get 12/16
[tex] \frac{2}{16} + \frac{12}{16} = \frac{14}{16} [/tex]
you can simplify by dividinv both sides by 2 to get 7/8.
