which of the following is the smallest: 5/65,4/44,2/24,3/42?

Sagot :

It must be similar fractions..
but first, let's reduce it to lowest terms tho...
5/65 = 1/13
4/44 = 1/11
2/24 = 1/12
3/42 = 1/14

LCD : 12012

LCD will become our denominator. To find the new numerator, we must divide LCD to the old denominator then multiply the answer to the old numerator.

[tex] \frac{924}{12012}\\\\ \frac{1092}{12012} \\\\ \frac{1001}{12012}\\\\ \frac{858}{12012} [/tex]

Therefore, the answer is  [tex] \frac{858}{12012} [/tex] which is [tex] \frac{3}{42} [/tex].
