19 Write Three Equivalent Fractions To Describe The Portion Of The Stained Glass Window That Is Gold Need Help With 19 Please Help Thank You class=

Sagot :

Answer:

  3/5 = 6/10 = 9/15

Step-by-step explanation:

The picture shows a stained glass window that has 5 panels. The panels are presumed to be equal in size. Each represents 1/5 of the area of the window.

Three of those panels are gold. (The other two are green.) So, the fraction of the window that is gold is ...

  3 × 1/5 = 3/5

__

Multiplying numerator and denominator of a fraction by the same value gives an equivalent fraction. We can write two more equivalent fractions using 2 and 3 as multipliers:

  3/5 = (3/5)(2/2) = 6/10

  3/5 = (3/5)(3/3) = 9/15

Three equivalent fractions for the gold portion of the window are ...

  3/5, 6/10, 9/15.
