Question

Which choices are equivalent to the expression 3/8? Check all that apply.

A. 6.12
B. 9.8
C. 3.12
D. 3.24
E. 6.24
F. 72

Answer 1

To find which choices are equivalent to the expression 3/8, convert the fraction into decimal form and check each choice. Option D is equivalent to 3/8.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find which choices are equivalent to the expression 3/8, we can convert the fraction into decimal form. The decimal form of 3/8 is 0.375. Now, we can check each choice to see if they are equal to 0.375.

Options A, B, C, E, and F are not equivalent to 0.375 because their decimal values are different. Option D, on the other hand, is equal to 0.375. So the correct choices are D.

Answer 2

None of the choices given (A. 6.12, B. 9.8, C. 3.12, D. 3.24, E. 6.24, F. 72) are equivalent to the fraction 3/8 when it is converted to a decimal (0.375). Therefore, none of the options apply.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks which choices are equivalent to the fraction 3/8. To find equivalents, you can either convert the fraction to a decimal or look for multiples that have the same ratio.

First, converting 3/8 to a decimal:

1. Divide 3 by 8 which equals 0.375

Now, let's compare the choices given:

• A. 6.12 is not equivalent to 3/8.
• B. 9.8 is not equivalent to 3/8.
• C. 3.12 is not equivalent to 3/8.
• D. 3.24 is not equivalent to 3/8.
• E. 6.24 is not equivalent to 3/8.
• F. 72 is a whole number and clearly not equivalent to the fraction 3/8.

By analyzing each choice, it's clear that none of the given options are equal to 3/8 in decimal form (0.375).
