To make the fractions equivalent, you need to find a number that can be multiplied by both the numerator and the denominator of the second fraction to make them equal to the numerator and denominator of the first fraction.
In this case, you need to find a number that can be multiplied by 4 and 8 to make them equal to 7 and 12.
To find this number, you can divide the numerator and denominator of the first fraction (7 and 12) by their greatest common divisor (GCD).
The GCD of 7 and 12 is 1.
Divide both 7 and 12 by 1 to get 7/1 and 12/1.
Now you have:
7/12 = 7/1
Since the fractions are now equal, you can conclude that 7/12 = 7/1.

that's wrong try again
Apologies for the mistake in my previous response. Let's correct it.
To make the fractions 7/12 and ?4/8 equivalent, we need to find a number that can be multiplied by both the numerator and the denominator of the second fraction to make them equal to the numerator and denominator of the first fraction.
In this case, we need to find a number that can be multiplied by 4 and 8 to make them equal to 7 and 12, respectively.
To find this number, we can start by finding the least common multiple (LCM) of 4 and 8.
The multiples of 4: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32...
The multiples of 8: 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64...
From the list above, 24 is the smallest number that is a multiple of both 4 and 8.
Now, we can multiply the numerator and denominator of the second fraction (?4/8) by 3 to make them equal to 7 and 12.
?4/8 * 3/3 = ?12/24
Therefore, to make the fractions equivalent, the missing number is 12.
7/12 = ?12/24

7/12 = ?12/24
12 is also wrong try again
Apologies for the confusion. Let's try again to find the correct number that will make the fractions equivalent.
We have the fractions:
7/12 = ?4/8
To make the fractions equivalent, we need to find a number that can be multiplied by both the numerator and denominator of the second fraction to make them equal to the numerator and denominator of the first fraction.
The numerator of the first fraction is 7, and the numerator of the second fraction is 4. Therefore, we need to find a number that can be multiplied by 4 to get 7. That number is 4 multiplied by 7/4, which is 7.
Now, we need to find a number that can be multiplied by 8, the denominator of the second fraction, to get 12, the denominator of the first fraction. That number is 8 multiplied by 12/8, which is 12.
Therefore, to make the fractions equivalent, we need to multiply the second fraction by 7/4. This gives us:
?4/8 * 7/4 = 28/32
So, 7/12 is equivalent to 28/32.
We have the fractions:
7/12 = ?4/8

The numerator of the first fraction is 7, and the numerator of the second fraction is 4. Therefore, we need to find a number that can be multiplied by 4 to get 7. That number is 4 multiplied by 7/4, which is 7.
Now, we need to find a number that can be multiplied by 8, the denominator of the second fraction, to get 12, the denominator of the first fraction. That number is 8 multiplied by 12/8, which is 12.
Therefore, to make the fractions equivalent, we need to multiply the second fraction by 7/4. This gives us:
?4/8 * 7/4 = 28/32
So, 7/12 is equivalent to 28/32.
finally you got it right
Apologies for the previous errors. Thank you for your understanding. I'm glad we were able to find the correct answer.
What number must replace x and y for the three fractions to become equivalent? 6/14 = x/7 = 24/y (1 point) x = # , y = #
To find the numbers that must replace x and y for the three fractions to become equivalent, we need to solve the equations:
6/14 = x/7
6y = 14x
6/14 = 24/y
6y = 14*24
In the first equation, we can cross-multiply to solve for x:
14x = 6 * 7
14x = 42
x = 42/14
x = 3
In the second equation, we can cross-multiply to solve for y:
6y = 14 * 24
6y = 336
y = 336/6
y = 56
Therefore, x = 3 and y = 56.
6/14 = x/7
6y = 14x
6/14 = 24/y
6y = 14*24
In the first equation, we can cross-multiply to solve for x:
14x = 6 * 7
14x = 42
x = 42/14
x = 3
In the second equation, we can cross-multiply to solve for y:
6y = 14 * 24
6y = 336
y = 336/6
y = 56
Therefore, x = 3 and y = 56.
