Question

Laura delivers newspapers. She spent 4|12 of her savings one new CD. Which equivalent fraction shows the amount Laura spent?

Answer 1

Equivalent fractions are fractions that have the same value. They can be found by reducing the fraction or by multiplying both the numerator and denominator by the same number.

In this case, 4 and 12 can both be divided by 4, so the fraction 4/12 can be reduced to 1/3.
