Sagot :

Answer:

2/5 or the third one

Step-by-step explanation:

The first two are 1/2 after they are simplified and the second two are just below or just above one half, the last one is above and the third one is below.

Answer:

2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert all fractions to have a common denominator

4, 10, and 5 can all be multiplied to equal 20

As a result, we will use 20 for the common denominator

What multiplied by 4 equals 20? 5 × 4 = 20

What multiplied by 10 equals 20? 2 × 10 = 20

What multiplied by 5 equals 20? 4 × 5 = 20

If we multiply this to the denominator, we must also multiply the same number to the numerator

Starting from left to right:

2 × 5 / 4 × 5 = 10/20

5 × 2 / 10 × 2 = 10/20

2 × 4 / 5 × 4 = 8/20

3 × 5 / 4 × 5 = 15/20

Compare: 10/20, 10/20, 8/20, 15/20

Which fraction has the smallest numerator?

8/20 as 8 is less than 15 and 10

Which fraction was 8/20? Check back to our work.

8/20 = 2/5

2/5 is the least
