need the equivalent fractions of 8/12 and 4/9   help?

8/12 can be reduced to 2/3...\n\nEquivalent fractions are anything of the form 2n/3n (where n is non-zero integer)\ne.g. 2/3, 4/6, 6/9, etc.\n\nSame thing for 4/9 --> 4n/9n\n= 8/18, 12/27, etc.

12 and 7/8ths\n\nconvert the 1/2 to 4/8, the 3/4 to 6/8, add the fractions to get 15/8 which is 1 and 7/8, then add the whole numbers

Add 3/8 to each side to get A by itself:\n\nA = 3/8 - 7/12\n\nThen you need a common denominator to add the two fractions together.  The common denominator is 24, to get that multiply 7/12 by 2/2 (which is one) to get 14/24.  7/12 = 14/24.\n\nDo the same for 3/8 multiply it by 3/3 (which is one) to get 9/24.  3/8 = 9/24\n\nSo 9/24 - 14/24 = -5/24\n\nA= -5/24

To do equivalent fractions, you can multiply the top and bottom by the same number and keep the basic value of the fraction the same.  For example, 1/2 = 2/4 = 3/6, etc.  You multiplied top and bottom by 2 to get 2/4 and 3 to get 3/6.\n\nNow, to add and subtract fractions, you have to give them a common denominator.  Usually this means finding an equivalent fraction of at least one of them, which is why I explained that first.  Once you have a common denominator, simply add or subtract across the top, and keep the bottom the same.  \n\nFor example, 1/2 + 1/4 --- the common denominator is 4, so you would have to change 1/2 to it's equivalent fraction by multiplying top and bottom by some number.  2 goes into 4 twice, so you'd multiply both by 2.  Now you have 2/4 + 1/4 = 3/4\n\nTo multiply fractions, simply multiply the tops, then multiply the bottoms, and reduce if possible.  1/2*3/4 = (1*3)/(2*4) = 3/8.  This cannot be reduced.\n\nTo divide fractions, flip the second one over and multiply.  2/3 / 1/2 = 2/3*2/1 = 4/3 or 1 1/3\n\nHope this helps.

8/(3-(8/3))\n\n3-8/3 = 1/3\n\n8/ (1/3) is the same as 8*3 which is 24.

I'm pretty sure that's wrong.\n8/2 = 4/1 = 4\nThis proves that 8/2 is actually 4.\n\nFractions are the same as division,and 8 divided by 2 is 4, so 8/2 is 4.

alright - the fractions you have given me are called unlike fractions which means they have a different denominator. to compare fractions the first thing you need to do is make them like(same denominator) -now,a fraction remains the same if you multiply the numerator and denominator with the same number. So look at your denominators-3,5,4,8. you need to find a number that is a common multiple for all these numbers-if you look at it, you dont see any immediate number as such-so just multiply all of these numbers to get their common multiple(ideally you should look for the lowest common multiple) which gives 480. now,multiplying the numerators with the corresponding numbers we get the following fractions: 320/480,192/480,360/480,300/480.\nnow that you have all the like fractions, though these may look different, they are actually same as the original fractions that you gave me. all you have to do now is arrange them in ascending order of numerators which gives:\n192/480 , 300/480 , 320/480 , 360/480\nnow writing the corresponding original values,your answer is:\n2/5 , 5/8 , 2/3 , 3/4\n\nthis is one method,another method involves direct division and then comparing the value, but you will get the same answer

Those are mixed numbers containing whole number and a fraction.\n8 1/2=8+1/2=8.5\nSimilarly 1 1/4=1+1/4=1.25 and others.

Find the least common multiple for 4 and 8.  It is 8.\nMultiply everything by 8\n8(10x) - 8(1/4) = 8(9x) + 8(3/8)\n80x - 2 = 72x + 3\nSubtract 72 x from each side\n8x - 2 = 3\nAdd 2 to each side\n8x = 5\nDivide each side by 8\nx = 5/8

ANSWER: 7/8 is greater than 1/9\n\nSOLN:\n\n      1) Multiply numerator of first fraction with denominator of 2nd fraction: (7 x 9 = 63)\n\n      2) Place 63 as the "value" for the first fraction.\n\n      3) Multiply numerator for second fraction with denominator of 1st fraction: (1 x 8 = 8)\n\n      4) Place 8 as the "value" for the second fraction.\n\n      5) Since 63 (the "value" placed for fraction 1) is greater than 8 (the "value" placed for fraction 2), then fraction 1 (or 7/8) is greater.

convert the fractions so they have common denominators:\n\n4/7 = 20/35; 2/5 = 14/35\n\n20/35 + 14/35 = 34/35

Well, here's another way.\nFirstly, LHS = Left Hand Side. RHS = Right Hand Side.\n\n(5/12)y = 3/4\n\nSo, rewriting, (5y)/12 = 3/4. Now LHS is a fraction with denominator 12. So, to compare RHS and LHS, we need first to make the denominator of RHS 12. Since 4*3=12, thus we change 3/4 to its equivalent with denominator 12 as follows : 3/4 = ( 3*3 )/ (4*3) = 9/12\nSo,  (5y)/12 = 9/12\nNow, by comparing we must have 5y = 9. ( Because numerator of LHS = numerator of LHS, when denominator of LHS and RHS are equal. )\n\nDivide both sides by 5 ( or equivalently, you can also say multiply both sides by 1/5 ) to get :\n\n(5y)/5 = 9/5, i.e, y =9/5 \n\nRegards.
