Question

Write the following pairs as like fraction

Answer 1

To convert pairs of fractions into like fractions, you need to find a common denominator. A like fraction refers to fractions that have the same denominator.

Let's work through an example. To illustrate, if you have the fractions \( \frac{1}{3} \) and \( \frac{1}{4} \), here’s how to convert them to like fractions.

1. **Identify the Least Common Denominator (LCD)**:
The denominators are 3 and 4. The least common multiple (LCM) of 3 and 4 is 12.

2. **Convert each fraction**:
- For \( \frac{1}{3} \):
\[
\frac{1}{3} = \frac{1 \times 4}{3 \times 4} = \frac{4}{12}
\]
- For \( \frac{1}{4} \):
\[
\frac{1}{4} = \frac{1 \times 3}{4 \times 3} = \frac{3}{12}
\]

Now we have the like fractions \( \frac{4}{12} \) and \( \frac{3}{12} \).

If you have specific fractions in mind you'd like me to convert into like fractions, please provide them, and I can help with those!
