Answer:
A)16/24
B)15/24
Step-by-step explanation:
We were told to rewrite so that the denominator will be 24
A)2/3
This can be rewritten as 16/24, so that the denominator is now 24. And if we divide the numerator (16) by factor of 8 and the denominator (24) by factor of 8. Then we have 2/3.
OR
[2/3 × 8/8] = 16/24
B)5/8
This can be rewritten as 15/24, so that the denominator is now 24. And if we divide the numerator (15) by factor of 3 and the denominator (24) by factor of 3. Then we have 5/8
OR
(5/8 × 3/3)= 15/24
