What number must replace the missing numbers for the three fractions to become equivalent? 6/14 = ?/7 = 24/?? (1 point) ? = , ?? =

Answer 1

To find the missing numbers for the three fractions to become equivalent, we can set up a proportion:

6/14 = ?/7

To find the value for ?, we can cross multiply:

6 * 7 = 14 * ?

42 = 14?

Now, we can divide both sides of the equation by 14 to solve for ?:

42/14 = ?/14

3 = ?

So, ? = 3.

Next, we can set up another proportion to find the value of ??:

?/7 = 24/??

To find the value for ??, we can cross multiply:

? * ?? = 7 * 24

Now, we can divide both sides of the equation by ? to solve for ??:

?? = (7 * 24)/?

Since we already determined that ? equals 3, we can substitute that value in:

?? = (7 * 24)/3

?? = 168/3

?? = 56

Therefore, ? = 3 and ?? = 56.
